"Tasted single blind at Southwold. This did not show well at primeur, but here in this blind tasting I am won over. It has a lovely cedar-infused nose – great expression and definition with blackberry, cedar of graphite coming through. Very well structured on the spicy palate, vibrant black fruits, grainy, earthy, slightly austere finish but undoubtedly excellent concentration and persistency. Tasted January 2009."

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.
The world's most planted premium red grape, yielding deeply colored, tannic and structured wines with cassis, cedar and graphite notes. Firm tannins and acidity make it exceptionally age-worthy, whether as a varietal or the backbone of a Bordeaux blend.
