The second wine of the property was established in 1985 following the acquisition by Suntory group.It comes from vines that average 30 years old today and planted on gravelly soils for fine Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot for some clay.
It receives the same care as the Grand Vin, with a search for maturity and concentration in the vineyard, a plot vinification and aging adapted to its tannic structure.
The wine is characterized by round tannins, aromas of red and black fruits on his youth and still shows good potential.
WEATHER CONDITIONS:
The year 2005 can be summarized in three words: drought, sunshine and a large range of temperatures. In a normal year, the rainfalls in Gironde represent on average 900 mm. In 2005, only 400 mm of rain were recorded. This year will remain in all the wine-growers' memories because of the exceptional weather conditions. Fresh mornings allowing to preserve acidity.
PICKING DATES:
From 21st September to 10th October 2005
BLENDING:
The blending consists of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot.
TASTING
"An attractive, bright, intense carmine purplish red colour. The nose is finely perfumed with notes of spices, lovely ripe fruits and a hint of well- measured oak. In the palate this wine is quite round and juicy on the attack, filling out to become ample in the mid-palate and finishing on a note of smooth ripe tannins. Already a really elegant and attractive wine, but one that will reveal its true personality in a few years from now."
