Château Lacaussade Saint-Martin - Trois Moulins 2006

Château Lacaussade Saint-Martin - Trois Moulins 2006

Following in the footsteps of its predecessor (rated “Exceptional” by the RVF), the 2006 vintage undoubtedly owes much of its character, fruitiness, and exceptional freshness to the very specific timing of the harvest, which took place when the grapes had reached peak ripeness: in the afternoon, after the morning dew had dried... A wine of great complexity, with integrated oak and aromas of exotic fruits and candied fruits, endowed with good aging potential inherited from extended barrel aging. Enjoy it now in the enchantment of its youth or in a few years, when it will be a great dining companion. Another exceptional success!
