Note di degustazione
53% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Cabernet Franc. 20% new oak. Lovely granite sort of aroma, and loads of ripe fruit. Modern but with one foot firmly in the St-Julien soil – really savoury and dry and complex. (RH)

The 2013 Le Petit Lion is an attractive, juicy offering laced with red stone fruits, wild flowers, mint and spices. A fleshy, resonant wine for the year, the 2013 shows good balance and plenty of breadth. Violets, rose petals and sweet spices linger on the supple, inviting finish. This is unusually good for a second wine. Le Petit Lion is mostly young-vine Cabernet, plus old-vine Merlot that does not make it into the Grand Vin. The blend is 53% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc. Tasted twice.
