...absolutely excellent...bouquet is deep and quite classy, as it offers up a classic blend of cassis, blackberries, espresso, tobacco leaf and just a hint of cedar...deep, full-bodied and quite soil-driven, with a fine core of fruit, tangy acids, ripe tannins and fine length and grip on the complex and poised finish.

Very rich and sweet on the nose. Easy and sweet and quite delicate...utterly charming and flattering until you get to that slightly drying finish.

REGION

France, Bordeaux, St.-Estephe

Saint-Estèphe is in the northern Médoc, on the left bank of the Gironde River. Although it has no First Growth estates, its five Second, Third, Fourth and Fifth Growth châteaux are notable, and, in recent decades, have become favorites with reviewers and consumers. Some reviewers also note that the appellation is today making excellent Cru Bourgeois wines, which frequently offer good value. There are 3,404 acres of vineyards and a variety of soil types, from gravelly soil to soil with significant sand or clay. The two Second Growth Châteaux in St.-Estephe are Cos d’Estournel and Montrose. The Third Growth Calon-Ségur is widely admired. The principal grapes grown are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
