"Ubiquitous Michel Rolland was the obvious choice for the first in this series of famous winemakers given the job of making a wine from Ch d'Arsac's grapes. Dark glowing crimson with a bright red rim. Very sweet, almost tarry nose. Quite obvious alcohol on the nose. Sweet, very thick palate entry."

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.
