A Château location with an exceptional terroir located next to the prestigious Château Latour, and among the most qualitative terroir of the Pauillac appellation.
This haut-Bages vintage ’21 has a considerable balance, plenty of velvety notes, and palatable body generated from a blend of 90% Cab Sauv, and 10% Merlot. The wine as overall is significantly powerful, elegant and vibrant, plentiful of minerality and subtle touch of salinity. Great structure and chewing tannins. However, the wine needs a bit more time. Although I decanted it for 2-3 hours, it was still too tight to appreciate the rest of nuances. I would hold it for the V’21 for another 3-5 years!
