BORDEAUX 2013 VINTAGE REPORT

The 2013 vintage in Bordeaux was one of the most difficult since 1965 and 1968. Thomas Duroux of Château Palmer describes it as “the most complicated vintage in 20 years”. It rained almost continuously in the spring. Flowering was uneven, leading to poor set, millerandage and coulure.

Dark purple red with violet hue and almost black centre. Expressive and complex nose with depth and finesse, elegant and balanced oak with fine toasting, dark berries, eg blacberries and bllackcurrants, aromatic spices in the background, hints of graphite. On the palate excellent length, complex flavour, balanced tannins. A very fine example of a top Saint-Emilion, one of the best wines of the vintage.

Ruby. Refreshing nose of red berries, pure fruit, floral highnotes, elegant and detailed. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, lovely balance, refreshing, delicate, elegant, long finish. A beautiful effort. 91-93

On the nose it is open, youthful, rich and seductive. The taste is firm, with drying tannins, and average in acidity, medium-bodied and youthful. On the palate it is layered and has blackcurrant, toasty, cigar-box, perfumed and mineral flavours. The finish is long. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 10-15 years.
