2019 La Dame de Onze Heures, St Emilion, Bordeaux

Description

Merlot makes up most of the 2019 blend with some cabernet franc, adding further depth and balance to this wine. Beatrice and Vincent aim to do most of their work in the vineyard so that little intervention is needed in the cellar. Large tuns and Italian jars are preferred over the classical 225L barriques during maturation, allowing the wine's purity and expressive character to shine through. Plum, blackcurrant and dark cherry combine with a touch of cedar to create a ripe and punchy palate. This wine can be enjoyed in its youth but will also improve with age.

About this wine

Saint-Emilion

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.
