2022 Château Leydet-Valentin Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, Bordeaux, France

A perfumed, elegant bouquet of dark berries, licorice, pencil lead and spices introduce the 2022 Leydet Valentin, a medium to full-bodied, round and sappy wine framed by velvety tannins and a fleshy core of fruit, concluding with a long, ethereal and wonderfully fruity finish. This is a blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc.
