Chateau Dassault 2015 Grand Cru Classe

An estate in full expansion over the past five years. This is powerful, intense, rich, ripe and high in alcohol, but it has excellent balance, and the silky-soft tannins manage to accompany the smoked oak step by step. Spicy, packed with dark fruit, rich chocolate and pepper, this is a powerful, sumptuous wine. It needs time, but is elegant and well-extracted. This is the truly accomplished modern face of St. Emilion. Juicy fruit is beginning to shine through this generous exterior, promising a good potential and the likelihood the wine will be at its best from 2023.
