Colour Red
Origin France, Bordeaux

With a blend that is half Cabernet Sauvignon, half Merlot, this is as rich as the year. The weight of fruit is borne by sweet tannins and layers of wood toast. There is a very dense dusty texture along with fine acidity and final blackberry fruit. It is for aging over the next 4-5 years. Rating: 92 The Wine Enthusiast www.winemag.com (Mar 2013)

This has a nice warm feel, with plush roasted coffee bean, steeped plum and fig fruit flavors melding through the tobacco-filled finish. Drink now through 2017.The Wine Spectator, www.winespectator.com (Mar 2013)

Strawberry soup, spice, cedar and cinnamon on the nose. Ample, positive damson and plum fruit with a neat oak overlay. Structured, ripe tannins and soft, balanced acidity and a fine, dry finish. Well judged. Drink: 2014. Rating: 16.5 Decanter Magazine (Mar 2013)

The Paloumey 2009 has a very fragrant bouquet with fresh strawberry, redcurrant and a touch of vanilla. Very fine definition and lift. The palate is medium-bodied with a tensile entry, edgy tannins, lots of freshness here with a citric undertow towards the finish. Very fine. Rating: 89 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Sept 2011)

Château Paloumey

When Martine Cazeneuve purchased Château Paloumey in 1990, she took up the challenge of reviving a prestigious and forgotten terroir located next to the famous Château la Lagune and Cantemerle. Replanting the vineyard and rebuilding the cellars have been a tremendous challenge for Martine, her aim was to achieve the highest quality possible for Paloumey wines. After years of hard work, commitment and passion, the estate was brought back to life and now extends over 32 hectares. Elegant in style, this is one of the greatest wine of the Haut-Medoc AOC.
