The 2021 Sansonnet is a powerful, deep wine, as it always is. Strong limestone inflections drive through a core of black fruit, mocha, new leather, licorice, spice and crushed rocks. Today, bright acids dominate. I wouldn’t dream of touching a bottle anytime soon. Tasted two times.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

The Wine Independent

The 2021 Sansonnet is medium to deep garnet-purple in color. It has notes of baked black plums and blackberry pie, leading to hints of cracked black pepper, dried herbs, and wet slate. The medium-bodied palate is tightly wound, with a racy backbone and lightly chewy tannins, finishing with an herbal lift.
