Chateau Boutisse Saint Emilion 2016 Bottle:1 then rested in American OakFrom the eastern part of the appellation and firmer clay soils, the deeply colored 2016 Chteau Boutisse (85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Carmnre brought up in one third new barrels) gives up a vibrant bouquet of blueberries, jammy black cherries, graphite, and earth. It's rich and powerful on the palate, yet displays a beautiful elegance and purity of fruit as well as fine tannins. It's an impressive wine.
