2010 Château Villemaurine
JUN 13 Deep ruby. Rich and sweet nose, scented and slightly graphite note beneath. I didn't find this mineral graphite nose on the '12 during primeur, and I hope it will show up as this is one of the things that make this stand out amongst so many "just fruity" Saint-Emilion’s. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, fruity, rich, dark berries and spices, the barrels are a bit up front at this stage, long finish. 91
