Solid and structured Saintayme, with lots of terracotta and dark fruits on the nose and palate. It's medium- to full-bodied with a fine, chewy tannin backbone and a flavorful finish. Impressive.

Plush contours wrap it all together. A decidedly opulent, flashy Saint-Émilion, Saintayme has a ton of tannin, but it's nearly buried by the sheer luxuriousness of the fruit.

So much sea salt and crunchy fruit with berry and grape character. Some orange, too. Medium-bodied, bright and vivid. Lively finish.
Integrated creamy oak and spiciness to the glossy berry fruit, mixing blackberries with strawberries. Juicy on the palate with a medium to full body and polished, dusty tannins.

Despite intense blueberry fruit and some chocolatey and spicy notes from 10 months in oak, the wine is elegant and fresh with a touch of balsamic, floral aromas and fine grain tannin.
