La Gatte,  La Butte (Bordeaux Superieur)  Vieilles Vignes - 2006

Tasting Note

Chateau La Gatte Single Vineyard “La Butte” 100% Old Vine Merlot. La Butte parcel sits behind the La Gatte chateau and is compos... (more...)ed of 100% merlot, planted in 1958. The merlot picked from this vineyard, regardless of vintage, is marked by very deep color, velvety texture, deep, complex, spicy flavors and great length. Comparable to many Saint Emilions and Pomerols, this wine is often mistaken for cru classes in blind tastings. Tempting when young, this wine has the stamina to hold and develop for two decades and is a true bargain.
