Note di degustazione
Gorgeous aromatics of blackcurrants, leafy tobacco, truffle, and spice all emerge from the 2010 Château Chauvin, a medium to full-bodied, concentrated, layered 2010 that has ripe, integrated tannins, plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It's drinking brilliantly today yet has another decade of longevity with, I suspect, a gradual decline thereafter. Based on 80% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, it was aged 15-18 months in 50% new barriques. Drink 2025-2035.

Chauvin produces a stylish wine, always exhibiting plenty of black cherry fruit intermixed with garrigue notes as well as hints of spice box and Christmas fruitcake in a medium to full-bodied, elegant yet savory and expansively textured style. The 2010 has a precociousness that gives it an up-front, sexy appeal, but then clamps down on the palate as the tannins begin to accumulate in the wine’s finish. Forget it for 3-4 years and drink it over the following 25.
This is a ripe dense concentrated Chauvin but without over-extraction or over-ripeness. The plum and blackcurrant flavours carry through in the finish supported by tannins that are ripe and balanced. Fairly long length. asianpalate.com
