Chateau Lyonnat Emotion Lussac 2010

This is an exceptional wine of the Lussac Saint-Emilion AOC created in 2008 by Brigitte Milhade (only between 30,000 and 40,000 bottles, depending on the vintage) that will age extremely well. It is produced on 10 hectares of very old vines, on a limestone-clay soil. Manually harvested, with a rigorous selection at ultimate ripeness and severe sorting. - 100 % Merlot The malolactic fermentation is done in new barrels, and then aged in 100 % new French oak. The colour is intense, almost black. The nose is powerful, black currant, blackberry, with toasted notes and leather. The palate is complex, powerful, very fruity with full and lush tannins.
