Tight and chewy tannins dominate the entry to this wine, with layers of liquorice, cigar box and sappy but concentrated cassis and blackberry fruits. The oak is evident but not overpowering and altogether this is broad-shouldered but well-handled and extracted, showing confidence, poise and estate signature.
The 2019 Château Dassault is rock-solid, offering a rocking bouquet of red and black fruits, camphor, new leather, cedary herbs, and a touch of flowers. It shows the more streamlined, elegant, yet pure style of the vintage, is medium to full-bodied, has ripe tannins, and a great finish. This is one classy, elegant Saint-Emilion with loads to love. It can be drunk today with a decant or cellared for 10-15 years.
The 2019 Dassault offers up an attractive combination of dark fruit, spice, leather, tobacco and savory accents. Lush and forward, with terrific persistence, Dassault has much to recommend it. Black cherry, chocolate, licorice, spice and leather build effortlessly in the glass. All the elements are very nicely balanced.
Ripe and lush, with the warm cassis, plum and blackberry compote profile of the vintage. This is backed by alder and juniper hints as it flows through the dark earth-accented finish. There's a bit of burl here, but everything is in proportion. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2024 through 2038. 3,000 cases made, 700 cases imported.
Aromas of blueberries, salted plums, stones, walnut husk, cloves and dried herbs. It’s medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins. Fresh, tight and mineral. Polished and refined with excellent length. Try in 2025.
