81% Merlot, 19% Cabernet Franc. This comes from vines that now average over 50 years old and it has good weight on the palate. The nose is ripe and this has clear fruitiness and well-handled tannins. FINE+RARE

This property, discovered and resurrected by Dr. Alain Raynaud, was acquired by Chateau Cheval Blanc and with a few refinements as well as a label change, the quality of the terroir (within the city limits of Libourne) continues to impress. Richly fruity, spicy and earthy, with attractive black cherry and currant fruit, this medium-bodied wine has soft tannins and seems ideal for drinking over the next 7-10 years.
