Description
Chateau Grand-Puy Ducasse 2009
Varietal: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot
Grand-Puy Ducasse 2009 has intense colour with ruby and purple hues.The aromas on the nose reveal hints of cassis syrup with liquorice and toast. These are confirmed on the palate,which is pure and elegant with considerable depth. The finish is stylish, built around tannins which are noble and silky in their texture.
After hand-picking and selection of the grapes on the vines,they are de-stalked and carefully sorted once more. Fermentation is carried out in temperature controlled stainless-steel tanks. After blending, the wine is aged from 18 to 24 months in French oak barrels, 30% to 40% of which are new.
