Description
The 2012 vintage in Bordeaux offers approachable, elegant reds with soft tannins and fresh dark fruit. 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot. Pale crimson. Savory, well-integrated nose. Gentle and light tannins but very correct balance. Still quite dry on the end. A bit rusty nail. Juicy start. Fairly evolved for six-year-old wine.
92 Points Wine Enthusiast "This is turning into an impressive wine as it finds its way between solid tannins and ripe, full black fruits. It is dark and dense at this stage with tannins that dominate. A more juicy character will develop as the wine ages. Drink from 2017."

ABOUT THIS BRAND
Chateau Dutruch
The Dutruch family created the winery at the beginning of the 19th century in the village of Grand Poujeaux, launching a distinguished story which has been perpetuated since 1967 by the Cordonnier family.
The high quality of the wines was recognized in 1932 with the classification of Cru Bourgeois Supérieur, followed by Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel in both the 1966 and 1978 classifications. Located at the east of the appellation, 80% of our vines are on the Grand Poujeaux plateau, the best terroir in Moulis. Its reputation comes both from its deep gravel soils, identical to the gravel in Saint-Estèphe or the western part of Saint-Julien, as well as from its proximity to the Gironde, whose influences allow an optimal ripening of the grapes. The remaining 20% of our vineyards are composed of clay-limestone and sandy soils. This diversity of terroir brings complexity and richness to our wines.
