ABV: 12.5%
GRAPE: Merlot & Cabernet Franc
 
When the Delon family of Leoville Las Cases fame took over this property, great things were expected, and we have not been let down. The 75% Merlot based blend with 25% Cabernet Franc and the 18 months in oak, 30% of which is new produce a wine that is firm, full and chewy with masses of concentrated fruit. In the case of this 1995 it is jammy plum fruit with a sweet cherry fruit nose and a supple character.
