Saint Emilion

A fine core of red fruit, supported and uplifted by branching tannins, with a light aroma of spice.

This wine has concentrated dark fruit aromas, spice, tobacco and cedar. On the palate it is full-bodied, with layered complex flavours of cherries, bramble fruit, sweet spice and cedar wood. The tannins are smooth and supple, notes of sweet liqourice linger on the finish.

Aromas of ripe dark fruit and oak on the nose are followed by rich, intensely ripe, plummy fruit on the palate. Fresh core acidity keeps it vibrant and alive and this is all supported by a taught tannin structure. All in all a great example of how Merlot excels in Lalande de Pomerol

This vintage has perfect poise and balance and a great maturity, reflecting the quality of the fruit. With an incredible freshness and aromatic power, this is a truly great vintage.

Consistently amongst the best of the Union de St Emilions estates, this is richly suave and satisfying with lovely fruit along with fine, savoury tannins.

What a nose. The purity of fruit is wonderful. Cherries, blackberries and flowers. Medium to full body, and the wine just rolls off the palate. Silky and beautifully textured. Drink in 2020 but already a beauty. Second wine of Larcis Ducasse.
