Reviews
Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
Exceptionally tannic, powerful and concentrated, with lofty levels of glycerin and extract, this is an enormously endowed, backward, massive wine that will require a decade of cellaring; it is a 30- to 40-year wine.Additional Information

FranceThough French wines are the highest valued wines in the world, esteemed wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne were only enjoyed locally until 150 years ago when transportation improvements made them widely available. French wine production is governed by a strict quality-control system, which regulates the grapes used in each region and classifies wineries according to an elaborate cru hierarchy. Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Syrah and Sauvignon Blanc are just a few of the important grape varietals with roots in French soil. |
