Note di degustazione
This is leaning into tea leaf and bark territory with plenty of plum purée and forest floor lingering in the background. Full body, juicy tannins and a chewy finish. Blend of 75% merlot, 20% cabernet franc and 5% cabernet sauvignon. Drink now.

Tasted blind. Light and fragrant. Direct and strongly communicating St-Émilion with good structure and well-judged extraction. Some persistence. (JR)
Black as black. Sweet, dark fruit on the nose, dried fruit. Overripe and overextracted. Chewy and tough. (JH)
Although not as impressive from bottle as it was from barrel, but still well-made, the 2011 La Couspaude exhibits dusty, loamy soil, earth, spice and new oak notes. It is a pleasant, medium-bodied wine, but seems less rich than other vintages.
