CROIX de BEAUSÉJOUR SAINT-ÉMILION GRAND CRU 2016

Clément and Rémi represent the fifth generation of Croix de Beausejour and live on the eight hilly hectares of the exceptional landscapes. The values ​​of authenticity, progress and simplicity they hold, tie them to a natural way of winemaking. They are respected for their know-how and quality of their terroir. 

Minerality, fresh thyme, a hint of mocha, spearmint and ripe, juicy, dark, juicy plums with black cherries all over the place. The wine is full bodied, supple, long and fresh, with a good sense of purity, stone and black and red fruits in the finish.

Antonio Galloni, Vinous (2016 Vintage)
"The 2016 Croix de Beauséjour is a serious second wine endowed with quite a bit of structure that should allow it to age gracefully for 10-15 years. Smoke, scorched earth, tobacco, leather, licorice, spice and a whole host of dark flavours give the Croix its decidedly sombre, brooding personality. The blend is approximately 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, with the Franc giving the wine its aromatic and structural signatures. I would not be surprised if the 2016 shows even better than this note suggests in a few years' time."
