"Patrick Junet - the Gentleman Farmer" |

This very small vineyard (1.6 Ha) was originally acquired by the
great-grand father of Patrick Junet,
who currently leads the Tourism Board of the City of Saint-Emilion and
managed to get it classified as World Patrimony by UNESCO.
Patrick now lovingly tends this vineyard with his wife Isabelle and you
can tell their passion for their wine. |

Tasting Notes:
This remarkable 2003 has a superb Bordeaux Robe. The nose announces a
great moment to come; scents of flowers and fruits (cherries) and
licorice. The wood is present but discrete and allows the vine to
express itself (You can feel the touch of Cabernet Franc). Soft, round
and mellow to the palate, it nevertheless has the great Terroir
undertone which classifies it as a Grand Vin. A truly Great Wine and a
“Vin de Garde” to keep, if you can resist drinking it right away!
Without a doubt one of the most pleasant Saint Emilion! |
