This Saint Estphe chteau makes wines that are true to the appellation with impressive depth and concentration. Usually modestly priced en primeur. The 51 hectare vineyard is planted with 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. Recent vintages have impressed us here. This chteau always performs well in blind tastings – often being mistaken for Montrose
A pretty wine with currant, cherry and some spices, such as nutmeg. Subtle this year. Medium body.
