Description

2017 Cheval des Andes, Mendoza, ArgentinaDeep ruby, this just looks inviting! Lots of aromatics jump out of the glass straight away. Violets, redcurrants, a touch of mint and black pepper to name but a handful. Silky tannins. I was expecting something a little burlier given the heat of the vintage but the team at Cheval des Andes have mastered this atypical vintage and created a beautifully precise and detailed wine that has a finish that seemingly lasts forever. Give it a couple of years at

Thibault has made a fine and elegant range of 2014s

full of picture-perfect Pauillac mint leaf

amplitude and boldness

There is no greenness or astringency to disturb the soft and velvety mouthfeel

A sense of minerality with gunflint on the nose

2004 was an abundant crop

with a perfect balance of spice and savoury rye notes

This is benchmark St Estèphe

it is the age and health of the vines

This wine is refreshing and appealing now

so a green harvest was necessary as well

Very elegant
