"(78% merlot and the rest a 50/50 blend of the two cabernets) Deep ruby-purple. Complex, enticing aromas of blackcurrant, plums, coffee, dark chocolate and underbrush. Dense, sweet and lush, with a silky mouth feel to the rich, ripe black fruit and mocha flavors. Finishes long and pure, with well above average intensity and depth for a wine simply labelled Bordeaux This is much riper and ultimately much better than last year's version."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
