Château Jacques Noir 2006
1*Étoile
Hachette
A brilliant wine with ruby highlights, this pure Merlot from clay soils is flattering and as successful as the 2005 vintage. Its delicate, almost caressing nose combines red fruit aromas with toasted notes, a sign of twelve months' barrel aging. The attack is both round and woody, revealing beautiful substance and a balanced structure supported by mellow tannins. Lingering notes of strawberry and blackberry bring freshness and elegance to the finish." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins)

About wine:
Acquired in 2001, the Château Saint-Émilionnais des Vignobles Ducourt is one of the largest family estates in Bordeaux, covering more than 400 hectares. This sparkling wine with ruby highlights is a pure Merlot grown on clay soils. It is flattering and as successful as the 2005 vintage. Its delicate, almost caressing nose combines aromas of red fruit with toasted notes, a sign of twelve months' barrel aging. The attack is both round and woody, revealing beautiful substance and a balanced structure supported by mellow tannins. Lingering notes of strawberry and blackberry bring freshness and elegance to the finish.
