Cabernet sauvignon. Les critiques qui l'ont dégusté soulignent ses notes florales (pétales de rose) et fruitées (myrtille et framboise), ses touches boisées bien intégrées et sa fraîcheur.

L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

The 2016 Lusseau, which is the property of the technical director at Château Pavie, is a blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a floral bouquet with pressed rose petal aromas littering the raspberry and cassis fruit. The oak here is neatly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with plenty of freshness, a gentle grip in the mouth, some lovely blueberry jam notes surfacing towards the precise finish. This is a great Lusseau to follow-up the excellent 2015, and it comes recommended.

James Suckling:

A firm and silky red with chocolate, walnut and berry character. Medium-bodied, round and juicy.
