From the historic von Neipperg family estate, Premier Grand Cru Classe B of Saint-Emilion, this 2021 is a Right Bank Bordeaux grown on the appellation's prized limestone and clay slopes. The blend leads with Cabernet Franc rounded by Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, aged on the lees in oak for finesse and detail. We love it for its terroir transparency and cellar-worthy structure, with a fine, chalky frame and lifted red-fruit lift that rewards patience or a decant tonight.
