Description

Interesting St Emilion Grand Cru .. Good condition and perfect for an upcoming 30 birthday present

Berry bros says

The first in a trio of great vintages and one that has been rather overshadowed by the 89s and 90s. Definitely the most "classic" of the trio, with many of the wines not being overtly fruit-driven but having levels of extract and concentration that that make them perfect candidates for extended cellaring.

The first half of the year was unusually cold and wet and the vintage was saved by a long, dry, warm summer. Harvesting began in mid September and some of the Cabernets were not picked until the 3rd week of October. Most of the wines are now approaching their plateau of maturity.
