From one of the few cru bourgeois in Pauillac, this 2012 is a straightforward, somewhat superficial style of wine made from a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc, 20% Merlot and the rest Petit Verdot and Malbec. The wine is soft, easygoing, palatable and pleasant, but lacks depth and nobility. Nonetheless, it is easy to drink and probably best consumed over the next 10 years.
