Description
The 2017 is a blend of 17 percent Merlot, three percent Petit Verdot and 80 percent Cabernet Sauvignon. The nose is full of crème de cassis, with an array of coffee bean, mocha, damson and olive notes. The medium-bodied palate displays clean, ripe and firmly placed tannins with creamy mid-palate fruit. Cleansing and fresh acidity provides support, giving the fruit a lovely crunch. It has a nice, long, clean finish, with notes of pepper and spice.

Pauillac
The aristocrat of the Médoc boasts 75 percent of the region’s First Growths, with Grand Cru Classés representing 84 percent of production. Pauillac's First Growths each have their own unique characteristics: Ch. Lafite Rothschild produces the region’s most aromatically-complex and subtly-flavoured wine, while – with its high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon – Ch. Mouton Rothschild can produce a decadently rich, fleshy and exotic wine.
