Die Cuvee für den Villemaurine 2016 besteht aus 80% Merlot und 20% Cabernet Franc.

The 2016 Villemaurine is absolutely gorgeous. Powerful. ample and resonant. the 2016 is a beautifully intense. modern Saint-Émilion. Dark cherry. plum. mocha and licorice notes build into a crescendo of aromas. flavors and textures. Even with all of its natural intensity. the 2016 retains terrific freshness and energy. In 2016. Villemaurine is terrific. Hubert de Boüard consults. Tasted two times.

The 2016 Villemaurine is a blend of 80% Merlot an 20% Cabernet Franc aged in 80% new and 20% one-year-old barrels for 16 months. It has a deep garnet-purple color and lovely cedar. earth. baked cherries and warm plums notions waft from the glass followed by nuances of pencil shavings. cloves. cinnamon stick. star anise and dusty soil. Medium to full-bodied bodied. the mid-palate slowly builds into loads of spicy layers with a pleasantly chewy texture and a long mineral-laced finish. About 2.966 cases produced.

This already has a very enticing nose of red and black berries with hints of smoke and licorice. A very elegant and beautifully balanced wine. in which the interplay of bright acidity. fine dry tannins and oyster-shell minerality is really fascinating. Very long. super bright finish. Drink or hold.

The 2016 Villemaurine. a blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. has a ripe. glossy bouquet with maybe just a little more warmth showing through than some of its peers. There is more than enough black cherry and wild strawberry fruit here. though I would like to see more terroir expression. The palate is medium-bodied with supple red berry fruit laced with soy. I appreciate the acidic drive to this Saint Emilion and the precision and minerality that comes through on the persistent finish. Impressive.

A solid Villemaurine with powerful structure and intensity. Full body. chewy tannins and a blackberry. walnut and wet-earth character. All there.
