“A blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc that copes effortlessly with a weighty 14% of alcohol due to the freshness of its crushed blackberry fruit and floral overtones. The wine is very elegant, with delicious pure grenadine on the palate, good concentration and fine tannins. Another example of why Teyssier is one of our best selling clarets.”
Considered as a modern day St. Emilion is becoming a great favorite of new but well oriented to fine wine lovers. “A really dark hue here, very dense right out to the rim. It has a slightly reserved but very promising nose, with dark fruits and fading notes of honeyed oak. Nice weight on the palate, creamy, but quite cool in style, before it shows a denser, more meaty side through the midpalate. This has a fine, firm style with a good backbone of acidity and ripe tannins at the finish”. WD at CIVB 2007 Tasting. From the house that produces the outstanding Le Dome.
