88 / 100
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
This fully mature wine exhibits a certain rusticity to its aggressive tannin, a characteristic I do not believe will ever fully dissipate. Dark garnet-coloured with amber at the edge, the wine offers forceful aromatics consisting of damp earth (or is it a hint of black truffles?). It is medium-bodied, with excellent fruit, but coarse tannin in the finish keeps this wine from receiving an outstanding rating.

Château l'Arrosée
Château l'Arrosée is a grand cru classé from Saint-Emilion, located on the South Coast of Saint-Emilion. Situated on the southern front of the Saint-Emilion hillsides, in the extension of Ausone, Château l'Arrosée is distinguished by two types of soils planted in the same proportion of three grape varieties (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc). Part of the vineyard planted on the sheltered south-western slope of Saint-Emilion benefits from maximum sunshine, with a clay-silt-limestone soil. This exposure promotes the maturity of the harvests, especially as the soil offers good regulation of the plant's nutrition in terms of both water and mineral salts. Historically, Château l'Arrosée owes its name to the presence of an underground spring. The second part of the vineyard occupies sandy-loam terrain at the foot of the slope. This double terroir contributes to the complexity and typicity of the vineyard. 60% Merlot is blended with 20% Cabernet Franc and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. A contribution of Cabernets sets this wine apart from other vineyards in the appellation. The average age of its vines is 35 years, and 45 for the oldest. Its cultivation follows traditional methods, including de-budding, green harvesting, and leaf removal. The grapes are hand-harvested and very selectively sorted. After passing through temperature-controlled vats, the wine ages for 15 months in new oak barrels. The annual production of Château l'Arrosée is around 40,000 bottles.
