Bordeaux Pauillac Bordeaux,France

Aged Pauillac from a classic vintage is unheard of at this price. Haut de la Becade is owned and operated by the Rainaud family since 1933. The 2010 is JUST now hitting its stride. It has concentrated dark cherry fruit, graphite minerals, baking spice, toast and a seriously long finish. A powerful wine, this will age gracefully many more years.

Classic Pauillac with rich fruit, poise and finesse. On the nose, pleasant intensity underscored by elegant oak. On the palate, lovely stuffing, ripe tannins and power, yet also sappy mouthfeel. Full, harmonious and lingering across the palate. Great vintage – drink now with great enjoyment or stash away for up to 10 years for further pleasure
