Note di degustazione
Spicy black cherries, chocolate, crushed stone, and some savory, meaty nuances all emerge from the 2010 Château Dassault, a rich, mouthfilling 2010 that has plenty of mid-palate depth and richness as well as outstanding length. It still has some tannic grip on the finish and should keep for another decade. It's clearly mature and drinking well, though. Based on 83% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, it was aged in 80% new French oak barrels and 20% once-used barrels. Drink 2025-2035.

Bright ruby-red. Aromas of black cherry, licorice and menthol. Not especially pliant or sweet but there's no shortage of intensity to this sturdy wine's black fruit and graphite flavors. Slightly medicinal and unforthcoming today, this wine will need a few years in bottle to express itself.
The 2010 Dassault is a sexy, open-knit opulently styled wine that exhibits loads of raspberry and mulberry-like fruit and a sweet kiss of cherries in addition to underbrush and forest floor notes. This round, fleshy, medium to full-bodied wine is a hedonist's delight. Don't discount the wine's purity and overall equilibrium. Despite its early appeal, it should drink well for 10-15 years.
