Aromas of antique chest of drawers, tobacco and mocha. A lovely balanced fluid silky texture - so balanced that nothing stands out - it has all come together as it should. A wonderful right bank claret from a good year. M+ intensity, M minus acid, fine tannins - a class act. A neighbour of the more famous Chateau Ausone. The percentages may vary according to the vintage but roughly it is 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon.

A wall of tannin and fruit, intensity, length, freshness. #NYWE13 #stemilion

What a stunning wine! Needs lots and lots of air. Double decanted yet it took a full hour to emerge. But when it emerges.... Release the Kraken kind of moment! Buy the most you can!

Stunning bottle. Time has been its friend. Sweet tannins and long finish.

2005 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 15 mins, 45 mins and 2 hrs. Throwing decent sed. Great color. Overt baby fat from this producer dissipated but plenty of the usual, front-palate richness found in the first decade of life still evident. In “the zone” currently. Medium bodied. Not improving but tasting like it’s closer to the front of “the zone”than the mid-section or the caboose. Flavors, concentration and overall impression sez this continues to gallop along in this lane and at this pace for another decade before fading noticeably. 11.5.23.

A beautiful St Em from a dynamite vintage. Pleasure with pedigree.

Earthy minerality around a nice core of sweet fruit. At a really nice place: mellow tannins but still lively with elegance, great depth and length.
