Note : Coup de Coeur 1jour1vin
You raved about this wine in 2005, awarding it one of the highest scores obtained by a wine presented on our site, and you'll be just as delighted by this exceptional 2010 vintage, a true Favorite from the 1J1V team. An intense Blaye on the nose and palate, with lovely, well-melted tannins and great finesse. A wine with all the ingredients of a Grand Cru!

Very nice discovery (well, not really, I tasted the 2005). Beautiful Blaye with nothing too much. Deserves its admittedly high price for the appellation. As long as the wine is good...
