Château des Laurets 2018, A.C. Puisseguin Saint Emilion, France
Château des Laurets and its adjoining land covers two appellations; Puisseguin and Montagne. Two wines are produced at the estate, both of which are Merlot rich offering a fleshy style very similar to that of A.C St Emilion. This wine spends 14 months in French oak and once mature provides great value for money.
Showing tremendous balance and freshness, the nose displays intense aromatic complexity, with spicy nuances followed by hints of vanilla and morello cherry. The wine reveals subtle, well integrated oak on the palate, along with exquisite elegance and great length with refined tannin. The black fruit flavours are remarkably fresh.
