Chateau Trapaud Grand Cru Saint-Emilion

Origins France, Brodeaux, Saint-Emilion, Grand Cru Style Dry red wine
Grapes Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon

Just arrived the latest vintage of our most popular Claret of all time.  Where the 2005 had a touch for vigour and flesh the 2006 needs a half an hour in the decanter before it hints at the promise of this great vintage.  At first quite dry and tannic, this starts to soften and reveals the depths and dark curranty fruits we've become used to from this superb Bordeaux.    Made by Beatrice Larribiere at their property in the heart of St Emilion. This will no doubt be another great cellar choice for 2012.
