Château Yon-Figeac St Emilion Grand Cru Grand Cru Classé 2022

The shot of Petit Verdot in the blend I would normally say adds colour, but in this vintage all the grapes are small with thick skins, and the colour comes out no matter what. Majors on black pepper spice, with rosemary, cinnammon, slate, cocoa bean, intense dark fruits, clear vintage signature, but has balance, character and lift, with a mint leaf finish Alain Château owner, 24.25ha.
