"Certes le fruit est bien là, avec ses arômes de framboise écrasée, mais le nez n’a pas dit son dernier mot, car pointe soudain la belle fraîcheur d’un d’After-Eight. Une bouche veloutée, complexe, élégante, avec des notes sanguines, épicées, ferrugineuses, des tannins veloutés et une belle acidité. Magistral !"
Appearance
The wines have a dense but lighter robe than the medoc. The hue is ruby with a touch ranging from purple to brick depending on the evolution.
Aroma
The bouquet is often fruity, with currant and other red and black fruits to which are added smoked or roasted notes.

Taste
Composed on average of 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, the red wines of Pessac-Léognan make a good compromise between marked tannins and the greediness of the fruit. We thus find red and ripe fruits, and empyreumatic notes.
