2009 Château Les Rosiers, Bordeaux,
Excellent ripe fruit balanced by wrap around, silky tannins
Patrick Jolivet produces this simple but charming, entry-level claret. Grown on a clayey plateau with limestone, in the heart of Entre Deux Mers, in the unpronounceable village of Cazaugitat where the enthusiastic Patrick has his 37 hectares. His red variety plantings are 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. As this is area is famous for its whites, he also owns decent Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon plantings, too. It is highly unlikely that you will find a better, inexpensive claret of such quaffability as this. The excellent ripeness of fruit is well balanced by wrap around, silky tannins. Drink from 2011 2014.
