Cellar/Tasting Notes
A sexy blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, the robust 2007 Monbousquet displays lots of toasty oak intermixed with sweet kirsch, blacker fruits, and spice box. Plush, medium to full-bodied, and supple textured, it is ideal for drinking over the next 7-8 years.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Beautifully elegant, noble, racy. A blend of 77% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A blend of 60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2006 possesses a dense ruby/purple color as well as a sweet perfume of espresso roast, damp earth, new oak, black cherries, and black currants. Medium to full-bodied with exceptional purity, surprising intensity, good..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This outstanding l'Arrosee is consistent with the Burgundian style that this terroir routinely produces. Never massive, at its best it offers intense flavors of kirsch, raspberry, crushed rock, and spice box. The full-bodied flavors are ethereal in their delicacy. Full, but stylish, precise,..

Plump, opulent, low in acidity and very sexy, this wine can be drunk over..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Blueberry, licorice and sandalwood, with a solid core of fruit. Velvet and mineral. Lots going on. An impressive wine from tiny yields. 75 percent Merlot and 25 percent Cabernet Franc."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"From a superbly situated on St.-Emilion’s plateau, 38-acre vineyard planted on primarily limestone and clay, this 2006 is meant for long-term aging. A combination of 80% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, it is a backward, brawny, muscular, long distance runner. Consumers..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"An ethereal, finesse-styled, Cheval Blanc-like delicacy accompanied by intensity ... A dense ruby/purple color is followed by a sweet perfume of crushed rocks, raspberries, cherries, flowers, and spice. Velvety-textured and structured, with considerable concentration yet a lightness of being..."
