The description below is the retailer’s own wording.

Chateau de Lussac produces some of the best wines in the Saint Emilion region, on a terrain of clay and loam.Blend: 80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc Dating back to the 19th century, this estate shows its pedigree in this still young, rich wine. It completes a trio of fine vintages from the producer, ripe with black fruits and still developing. Drink the wine from 2026.Cellar Selection Deep purple-black in color, the 2020 de Lussac needs a little swirling to unlock wonderfully pure notes of wild blueberries, black raspberries and fresh blackberries, plus suggestions of pencil shavings and bouquet garni. The medium to full-bodied palate is tightly wound with loads of black fruit and floral and herbs layers, framed by rounded tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and mineral laced.Barrel Sample: 90-92 A medium-bodied red with juicy fruit and slightly austere tannins at the moment. This should come around with some bottle age.
