Winemaker and winery: Patrick Léon, Château Cérons. Grape varieties: 70% Semillon, 21% Sauvignon Blanc and 9% Sauvignon Gris. Region: Graves. Viticulture/Vinification: The grapes were selectively handpicked from 15-70 year old vines. Stalks were removed and the grapes cold macerated before being gently pressed. The majority of the wine was fermented in new oak barrels and matured for 11 months. The remaining wine was fermented in stainless steel. Availability: 53 stores. 13.0% vol. Dark gold. Very, very toasty oak on the nose, and a little sulphur, which is odd. Oaky taste, even for me and it seems rather short. One minute you’re swallowing and the next there’s nothing in your mouth except oak. Disappointing and surprising. 23/03/10 |
