“The 2010 is a wine with beautiful body and great concentration, though it lacks just a touch of freshness. ” (The Guide to the Best Wines of France 2014 - RVF). This expressive Saint-Emilion is rich on the palate, fairly supple, not overly full-bodied, with an elegant and fresh finish... • Delivered in a wooden case for orders of 6 bottles of this wine shipped within France •

About the estate:
“This magnificent estate is now the largest of the Saint-Émilion Grands Crus. Its ambitious owner, Bernard Magrez, is also a hard worker who knows how to surround himself with the right people. Production quickly returned to its former glory: generous and meticulously crafted, the wines assert themselves as modern and flamboyant. Alexis Combe took over as manager of the estate, having applied for Grand Cru Classé status in 2012 after bringing the estate into compliance by creating a dedicated winemaking facility for Magrez-Fombrauge.”
