The palate is fresh with creamy, well-integrated, ripe, silky tannins alongside a spicy, crunchy acidity. It dances across the tongue with a flicker of polished fruit, finishing with a suave, polished character and a classy richness.

Saint-Emilion

First officially classified in 1954, St-Émilion is one of Bordeaux's largest winemaking appellations, producing more wine than Listrac, Moulis, St Estèphe, Pauillac, St Julien and Margaux combined. Many of the region's finest vineyards can be found atop the steep limestone slopes of the village itself, although a fledgling band of garagiste producers are eschewing terroir to make small-batch, deeply-concentrated wines from their homes.
