Tasting notes
Scents of overripe red cherries, along with a boatload of toasty new oak are present in this delicate, lacy, medium-bodied St.-Emilion. A 90-point nose is followed by 82-point flavors, hence the score. This 1998 should drink well for 12-14 years.

A delightful, delicate St.-Emilion. Pleasant blackberry and raspberry character. Medium-bodied, with good fruit, fine tannins and a fresh finish. Best after 2006. 2,915 cases made. – James Suckling , Wine Spectator 2001

About the producer
Ch. l’Arrosée was a 9.5-hectare vineyard in Saint-Emilion. After the château was sold to Domaine Clarence Dillon (owners of Ch. Haut-Brion and Ch. la Mission Haut-Brion) in 2013, the wine was discontinued and the grapes are now used for Ch. Quintus.
