Description:
We tasted Lalande Borie during our visit with Bruno Borie at Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou. This elegant red has loads of bright fruit and a nice, long finish. Should drink well early and continue to get better for 7+ years. |

91-93 Barrel sample. Rich and smooth, with tannins that are ripe, some spice and also intense acidity. The blackcurrant character is dominant. |

 |
The finest wine I have ever tasted from Lalande Borie, the 2009 (50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and 10% Cabernet Franc) displays lots of purity along with a boatload of black currant, raspberry, and black cherry fruit, no evidence of wood, broad, rich, deep flavors, and a velvety texture. It should drink well for a decade or more. (Tasted once.)
