CHÂTEAU FLEUR CARDINALE 2009 (2)
Saint-Émilion. Grand Cru Classé
u. 2 x bn. 1 x scuffed label. 2 x wrinkled capsules.
A good value among over-achieving St.-Emilion estates is La Fleur Cardinale’s 2009. Composed of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, some of the abrasive tannins noticeable early on in this big wine (14.5% alcohol) are now sweeter and better integrated. Made from tiny yields of 30 hectoliters per hectare, this is a concentrated, rich effort revealing lots of black cherry and black currant fruit as well as a fragrant, firm, full-bodied personality.
