Description
In a nutshell:
A big and generous, ripe and fruity Saint-Emilion from a good vintage.
The lowdown:
Now firmly established as Saint-Emilion's regularly reliable performers Boutisse continues to go from strength to strength. There's an emphasis on sustainable viticulture and chemical herbicides haven't been used for a number of years now. Still quite modestly priced for a high level Grand Cru Saint-Emilion Boutisse is classically Merlot dominated but has around 10% Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend as well. By and large 2018 was a decent vintage here and the resulting fruit was ripe and full. It has a full body, plenty of depth and a great structure. There are ripe red fruits on the palate with cloves and and dry spice aromas. The velvety tannins sit silkily on the tongue and lead up to a satisfyingly lengthy finish.
When to drink:
Just about ready to drink, but this vintage will have plenty of longevity so can easily be put away for a few years. Red meats, game and hard cheeses are good accompaniments.
Suitable for Vegetarians
