2018 Château Teyssier

Description

94   James Suckling
“Currant, dried-flower, citrus-zest, and sandalwood aromas, with hints of sliced mushrooms. It’s medium-to-full-bodied with firm, powdery tannins and fresh acidity. Fragrant, pretty, and precise. Really fine.”

92   Jeb Dunnuck
“What can be thought of as the entry-level Cuvée from Teyssier, the 2018 Château Teyssier is a sleeper in the vintage, offering a great perfume of blueberries, wildflowers, and candied oranges, and Asian spices, with a touch of chalky minerality on the finish. Rich, medium to full-bodied, and beautifully textured on the palate, it’s gorgeous, already impossible to resist Saint-Emilion to enjoy over the coming decade. It’s the finest vintage I’ve tasted for this release.”
