Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
Medium-bodied, forward already charming to drink, this soft textured, fruity gem, with its fresh, savory red currants, spice and tobacco leaf is perfect for near-term drinking while you wait for the Grand Vin to mature.
Falstaff
Strong ruby, light ochre reflections, broader brightening on the rim. Notes of candied orange zest, ripe fig and currant with delicate smoky noble wood in the background. Juicy palate with a sweet texture, ripe blackberry conserve, round tannins and a chocolaty touch on the distinctly long finish. Already accessible and has certain ageing potential.
Decanter Magazine
Filled with gourmet notes of chocolate shavings and brioche, with sweet black fruits and firm tannins. This is an enjoyable second wine with well-ripened fruits and a charcoal edge through the finish. A little austere as things close out. The tannins have a pretty muscular bite to them.
Druvor
43% Cabernet Sauvignon, 57% Merlot
Tasting note
One of the very first Médoc second wines. Connétable was created in the 1970s. Over the years, it has benefited from all the care given to the vineyard and increasingly stringent selections. Like its predecessor, this is a classic, elegant wine, with a clean, well-defined structure and a long, fresh finish.
