situated on a low hillock (or "puy") above the village of Bages in the Pauillac region of the Medoc. Classified as a fifth growth in the 1855 Bordeaux classification, the Cabernet Sauvignon dominant grand vin is known for its velvety texture and cigar box and cassis aromas. The 2001 vintage was a very good vintage, but is overshadowed by the better 2000 vintage.
Typical blend, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc
Bottle condition, capsule good, label a little bin soiled, wine level in neck
Producer Tasting note of 2001 Vintage
This vintage presents an intense ruby red colour. On the nose, it is very tempting, powerful with blackcurrant aromas, notes of cherry jam, black fruits raised of liquorice and spices, the all combined with the freshness of the ripe grapes. In the mouth, we discover a wine with a race shape with strong notes of spices and black fruits and with a very long length. The wine is perfectly ripe with full-bodied tannins but voluptuous and with a great balance. This wine offers the beautiful expression of the terroir of this very typical Pauillac wine.
