St. Estèphe, 2ème Cru Classé

Offert en caisse bois d’origine



Coffee nose, with liquorice notes.  Rich and terribly luscious.  This has everything – superb.  The tannins are so opulent and there is such structure.  Thick layers of winey beauty.  Sheer genius.  The last vintage of Jean-Louis Charmolüe before he sold this magnificent property.  In 2010, big, spicy, impressive nose.  A huge mouthful, with First Growth weight.  Elemental.  Terrific St. Estèphe, ‘marine’ finish.  Great fruit/tannin/acidity balance - a feature of 2005, perfectly displayed here.  Serena Sutcliffe, MW
