"The dense purple-colored 1999 La Clusiere is from a 2.5 acre vineyard above Pavie. It boasts a gloriously sweet, perfumed bouquet of minerals, new oak, and plum liqueur intermixed with cherries and assorted black fruits. The wine is medium to full-bodied, elegant, and flamboyant, with a chewy texture and well-integrated acidity, tannin, and wood . . . . The Le Pin of St.-Emilion?"

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.
