CHÂTEAU GEMEILLAN 2014 Cru Bourgeois, AC Médoc
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer
This actual blend in this long-deceased 7-year-old tasting note in the Vintages Catalogue is 53% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Cabernet Franc. It still has a fairly youthful deep intense garnet-red colour. The nose shows good intensity and has sandalwood-tinged, gently complex, faintly earthy, ripe, maturing plum-cherry fruit. Dry, medium bodied and well structured, the now-firming-up, very faintly metallic, plum fruit is classic old-style Medoc, the perfect foil for roast beef. A well-priced, still perfectly sound, Concours Mondial Bruxelles 2016 Gold Medal winner is still alive and kicking. It has 13% alcohol and under 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L14-3 on the back label. CSPC 26296
