Description
Overview:
Nestled on the prestigious hill of Cos in the heart of Saint-Estèphe, Château LiNot is the very definition of a hidden gem — a tiny 0.6-hectare estate producing fewer than 800 cases per year, surrounded by some of the most celebrated names in Bordeaux. The estate is classified as a Cru Artisan du Médoc, a distinguished designation over 150 years old that recognizes a small group of committed winegrowers who personally oversee every step of production, from vine to bottle. The 2022 vintage is a classic Saint-Estèphe blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot, drawn from 60-year-old vines — with the oldest dating back to 1940 — and aged eighteen months in French oak. A true artisan wine of remarkable finesse, and a beautiful expression of one of Bordeaux’s most respected appellations.
Bob’s Review:
Wow! The nose absolutely carries the day on this one, and the palate follows with lovely fruit. There’s a touch of oak, but it sits right where it should. Well made and easy to love — members are going to be thrilled with this one. Drink now or hold for five to ten years.
