| Château La Bienfaisance 2004Red WineSt Émilion Grand Cru, Bordeaux80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet FrancReviews / Ratings:
"This wine exhibits plenty of toasty new oak, black cherry, and cassis characteristics along with a touch of herbaceousness in the background. It is medium-bodied, with excellent ripeness, moderately high tannin, lofty alcohol, and good texture as well as richness, It should be consumed during its first 10-12 years of life." (Wine Advocate, # 171 June 2007). "This is an up and coming estate, thanks to the efforts of proprietor Patrick Basedon and his winemaking guru-consultant, Stéphane Derononcourt." Consume "now-2019." (Parker’s Wine Buyer’s Guide No. 7, Oct. 2008) |
