This beautiful 2011 St.-Emilion possesses a sumptuous texture, lots of rich, earthy, black currant and black cherry fruit and spice box characteristics, a round, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, and impressive purity, texture and length. Already strutting its stuff, it can be drunk now and over the next 10-12 years. A blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, it is a sleeper of the vintage.

This dense ruby/purple-colored blend of 72% Merlot, 18% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon tips out at a whopping 14.5%. From a top site, the Cote Pavie, this is a very fine 2011 with abundant cassis, kirsch, licorice and loamy soil undertones. Its sweet tannin, plush opulence and medium to full-bodied feel are all impressive. Anticipated maturity: now-2028.

Savoury nose and palate. Good mid-palate fruit, smooth tannins and a fresh, long finish. Less depth but a fine follow up to 2010. Drink 2017-2026.
