1983 Chateau L'Arrosee, Saint-Emilion, France, 750mL [Top Shoulder]

$161.91

This mature Saint-Émilion offers a deep garnet hue with a rusty rim, revealing notes of damp earth, truffle, and cherry compote. While the wine retains excellent fruit concentration, it also reflects the era's rustic structure with coarse, lingering tannins—a classic Bordeaux with undeniable old-world charm.

Crafted from an unusually balanced blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon (each playing a third), L’Arrosée is distinct in Saint-Émilion. The estate lies on the southern slopes next to Château Ausone, where clay-limestone soils and sandy loam contribute to its elegant structure and age-worthiness.

This wine offers a nostalgic and contemplative drinking experience—perfect for collectors and enthusiasts looking to taste the unique terroir of pre-modern Saint-Émilion.
