Tasting Notes

Another terrific effort from Jean-Philippe Janoueix, this beautiful 2011 boasts a dense purple color as well as a big, sweet bouquet of smoky barbecue, red and black fruits, and subtle background oak. Rich, full-bodied and textured, there is not a hard edge to be found in this plush, well-endowed St.-Emilion. Enjoy it over the next decade.

Robert Parker, Wine Advocate (212), April 2014

A polished, very pretty wine with blackberry, dark-chocolate and light cream character. Medium to full body with fine tannins and a fresh finish. Needs at least four to five yeas to soften. Try in 2019.
