Grand Vin de Reignac 2012
* Across any 6 bottles of wine, when purchased in store.
This consistent overachiever from proprietor Yves Vatelot is a blend of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. By keeping yields to cru classé levels of 35 hectoliters per hectare and using high-quality oak, Vatelot is able to produce a wine far above its humble pedigree.
This 2012 is a serious wine – structured, deep ruby/purple, with excellent concentration, impressive purity, excellent integration of new oak, and a long finish.
This is a major sleeper of the vintage and another classic offering from Reignac. Drink it over the next 10 years or so.
