2015 Chateau Franc Mayne, Saint Emilion Grand cru classe

“The 2015 Franc-Mayne has a refined and detailed bouquet with blackberry, raspberry coulis and a touch of cedar emerging from the glass. This is a classy bouquet in the making. The palate is fresh and vibrant with succulent red berry fruit overlaying a fine lattice of tannin. Precise, focused and elegant without compromising the fruit, this is perhaps the best wine that I have tasted from this estate. Bravo! Barrel Sample: 93-95.” Wine Advocate

“Lots of blackberry, blueberry and mineral aromas and flavors. Full and super silky. Pretty freshness and length. Barrel Sample: 92-93.” James Suckling.

“A bright, racy style, with a little blood orange tang amid the plum and raspberry fruit. Sweet spice and roasted apple wood notes fill in gently, letting the fruit keep the upper hand. Barrel Sample: 90-93.” Wine Spectator
