Product Description
JA95 "Begining to soften in colour around the edges, turning rose-pink and brick. On the aromatics you get brushed leather, walnut, dried roses and earth. Acidity higher than you find in most classified Left Banks at this stage, a feature of these limestone soils. Supple tannins, finessed and fine, masking at first the power that is still very much in play from the mid palate onwards. Gorgeously juicy raspberry puree and blackberry fruits intensify as it opens up and this is a wine to fully savour. Ready to drink now but no need to rush, it will stay on the plateau for another decade. 55% new oak. 34hl/h yield, 3.73ph, harvest September 23 to 30." Jane Anson July 2021
