Chateau Boutisse Grand Cru 2018

Product description

Château Boutisse is known for being among the best of Saint-Émilion Grand Crus. These vineyards are planted on the plateau of Saint-Émilion. The limestone in the area allows for wines to be produced with the consistent quality that Château Boutisse is known for. The vines have to work hard to find nutrients and water, creating a lower yield, which is what winemakers are looking for! Saint-Émilion is known for this terroir, which is why such high quality grapes are found in this region.

Jeb Dunnick says this wine gives up a vibrant bouquet of blueberries, jammy black cherries, graphite, and earth. It's rich and powerful on the palate, yet displays a beautiful elegance and purity of fruit as well as fine tannins. It's an impressive wine.

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast    The two Milhade siblings have produced a rich, many-layered wine. With dense tannins balanced by equally intense fruit, this Merlot-based wine is concentrated. Black fruits, acidity and layers of tannins need time to come together. Drink from 2025.
