Description
This is a lovely, heady wine and, while bearing the trademark muscle of the château, there is an almost seductive edge to the wine. Damien Barton-Sartorius advised that the tannins were rapidly and easily extractable this year, so the pump-overs were shortened accordingly. Like its sister wine, this is powerful, lush, but also energetic. Drink 2027-2045.
