Note di degustazione
The 2012 Cadet-Bon is a distinctly aromatic Saint-Emilion. Floral and savory notes open up first, followed by beams of acidity and tannin that give the wine its energy. This is an interesting, understated wine that needs time to fully come together. The blend is 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Frédéric Massie is the consulting winemaker. A small estate in Saint-Emilion's limestone/clay plateau, Cadet-Bon is a property to keep an eye on.

80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc. Deep dark cherry colour. Intense and sweet Merlot nose, oak well in check. Juicy and lightish on the palate but all the better for that freshness. Nothing forced. Powder-fine tannins. Moderate length. Not a blockbuster but a harmonious whole. (JH)
