This well-known property ... has always been considered one of the best Grand Cru of Saint-�milion.

Moueix, owners of Ch�teau Petrus and other famous Ch�teaux in the Pomerol and Saint-�milion region. (www.aboutwines.com)

Tasting Notes
A relatively open Saint-Emilion with wonderfully revealing regional typicity. Salty/savory notes contrast nicely with the solid core of black fruit. Dry with firm, dusty tannins and lovely notes of violets, tomato leaf, blackberry, currants, pepper and a slight smokiness. Quite complex for the price. Drink now to 2018. Tasted October 2013. Score - 91. (Sara d'Amato, winealign.com, Nov. 21, 2013)
