75 % Merlot, 18 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 7 % Cabernet Franc. Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte, lila Schimmer aussen. Fülliges Bouquet mit einer scholokadigen, pralinenhaften Süsse, nussiger Untergrund, ein Hauch verführerisches und fülliges Caramell. Genialer Gaumen, so richtig fetter, samtiger Pomerol, reife Frucht, Pflaumentouch und wieder eine superbe Pralinen-Schokonote zeigend. Erinnert an den grossartigen 98er!

This darker, toastier style delivers plush cocoa and plum sauce aromas and flavors to lead the way, liberally laced with notes of pain d'épices, fig and blackberry confiture. Fleshy edges build through the finish, with impressive grip. A property steadily on the rise. Best from 2014 through 2027. 1,900 cases made.

Their finest effort since 1982, Petit Village has turned out a beautifully generous, succulent, fleshy 2009 with loads of ripe plum, black currant, black cherry, mocha and subtle earthy undertones. Round, flamboyant, dense and rich, with low acidity, outstanding concentration and purity, and a long finish, this outstanding wine should drink well for up to 15 or more years.
