Chateau Poujeaux 2006

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (90)

This estate was acquired last year by St.-Emilion’s Cuvelier family, who has done a phenomenal job of bringing the famous Premieres Grand Cru Classe of St.-Emilion, Clos Fourtet, into superstar status. Nicolas Thienpont and Stephane Derenoncourt are now producing the wine, although I do not believe they had anything to do with the 2006. Its deep ruby/purple color, notes of sweet black currants, incense, camphor, and spice box, and medium to full-bodied style are accompanied by a wine with excellent fruit intensity, purity, and length. It should drink well for 10-15 years. Good value.

Balanced and pretty, offering berry and milk chocolate aromas, with a hint of nutmeg. Medium-bodied, with a solid core of fruit and a balance of ripe and pretty tannins
