Vanilla and toasty notes predominate on the nose, with persistent bramble flavours on the palate and a long-lasting finish.
Château Perron 2015 is a beautiful garnet-red hue with deep purple tints. The nose delivers a powerful, rich bouquet covering a broad aromatic array of red fruit, cinnamon, café and liquorice; a Lalande of fine complexity. The palate offers an impression of harmony, roundness and suppleness over a velvety tannin base. A subtle wine, full of finesse. The result of an excellent vintage, it will gain even greater complexity after a few years' ageing in the bottle – for your delectation and delight. To drink from 2017. Cellaring potential: 5 - 10 years.
Having been in the Massonie family for three generations, Perron is now the responsibility of Bertrand Massonie, whose drive, passion, technical skill and respect for the property's exceptional terroir have contributed massively to its recent renaissance. One of the top wines in the appellation and a rising star of the Right Bank.
