Tasting notes
Pretty blueberry and coffee bean character. Full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a medium finish. A beautiful Reignac. Whether it will ultimately be better than the 2005, we will see

One of the strongest Reignacs from proprietor Yves Vatelot, in 2009 this over-achieving estate has turned out a modern-styled Bordeaux with a viscous texture and notes of coffee bean, black currants, earth and vanillin in a delicious, front end-loaded, yet surprisingly deep, textured, full-bodied wine. It should drink nicely for 5-6 years, possibly even longer, although I am always skeptical of a generic Bordeaux that lasts much longer than a decade. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate February 2012
