Château Haut Pezat, St. Emilion Grand Cru 2009

Press

Nice texture, youthful and zesty with layers of stone fruits, bright freshness, rather long finish with some honey and wax on the aftertaste.

TastedWinter 2009/10

With ample richness, the lime-pear-orange combination arrived smooth and luscious; our notes recall flavors of mineral, touches of honey, nectarine, vanilla and even a slight hint of toasted nuts. This complex mix of intriguing flavors makes for a truly enjoyable drink. An extensive finish leaving an “all over the mouth” range of sensations, this would be a fine combination with a goat cheese soufflé, or lighter fish like trout in a cream sauce. Only the barest tiny bit of sweetness.
