Chateau Des Laurets Puisseguin St. Emilion 2014

Chateau Des Laurets Puisseguin St. Emilion 2014

This 2014 magnum from Chateau des Laurets is a poised and expressive example of Right Bank Bordeaux, where Merlot-driven fruit is framed by Cabernet Franc’s freshness and aromatic lift. Produced under the Edmond de Rothschild Heritage portfolio, it reflects a careful balance between ripeness, structure, and finesse.

The magnum format further enhances its refinement, supporting slower evolution and a more layered development in bottle over time.

Tasting Profile:

• Appearance: Deep ruby colour with a polished clarity and youthful vibrancy despite early maturity.
• Nose: Fragrant and inviting, opening with ripe cherry, blackberry, and plum. These fruit aromas are complemented by subtle cedar, vanilla, and warm spice notes from oak ageing, alongside a faint earthy mineral character.
• Palate: Smooth and well-proportioned, with supple tannins and a rounded mid-palate. Red and dark berry fruit dominate, supported by gentle spice and a discreet oak influence. The texture is refined, showing balance rather than weight.
• Finish: Persistent and elegant, with lingering red fruit, soft spice, and a clean, lightly savoury edge.
