Description

Consistency characterises this property which has a great affiliation with the UK market. You could suggest they should do better in the great vintages but in the more challenging years they provide us with good wines, classical in all the right ways. Dark fruits and black cherries roll around the palate providing purity with an elegant sweet touch. Structure is key here, soft, ripe tannins will ensure this is good to drink from 2020 to 2030. The finish is excellent and long combining charming sweet notes, sound structure and length.

Saint-Julien

Saint-Julien

St Julien is the smallest of the ‘Big Four’ Médoc communes although, without any First Growths, it is recognised to be the most consistent of the main communes with many châteaux turning out impressive wines year after year. The wines can be judged as much by texture as flavour, and there is a sleek, wholesome character to the best. At their very finest they combine Margaux’s elegance and refinement with Pauillac’s power and substance.
