A blend of 90% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. It is a wine with expressive fruit, an opulent nose of red berries, roundness on the palate, with good length and a harmonious and elegant finish. Chateau Pipeau is very delightfull when young but it also has all the qualities for laying-down of a really great Saint-Emilion.
