A walkaround tasting of cask samples at the Montrachet Wines EP tasting of 2025 Bordeaux on 29 April 2026.
Graham 2024. An attractive purple-red colour, with a centre that is just transparent. The most expressive nose of the four Symington wines on show at this tasting, bringing sweet red cherry and delicate lavender. Sweet fruit on the palate, firm but beautifully integrated tannins which give a lovely bite to the fruit. This wine has a richness to it but comes with a finesse which just adds another layer of interest to the wine. Slightly sticky on the long fruit finish. 94-96/100.
