Vibrant violet edge to this ruby red colour. Expressive aromatics even at this early stage, with nuances of peonies and berry fruits, laced with coffee bean, delivered with a raspy slate texture to the tannins that ensure the flavour hangs around. Well structured, plenty to get your teeth into here. Harvest September 17 to October 10, on fruit days only according to the biodynamic calendar. Heavy bottle, a little at odds with the vegan-certified, increasingly biodynamic ethos.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarrel Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e93\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pipProdProReviews_item\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Review\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"review\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"sr-only\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Rating\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"reviewRating\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_rating\"\u003e93\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\" itemprop=\"author\"\u003eRobert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProdProReviews_review\" itemprop=\"reviewBody\"\u003eComposed of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot, harvested from the 17th of September to the 10th of October, the 2019 Dauzac is aging in French oak barriques, 66% new. It weighs in at 14% alcohol. Deep garnet-purple colored, it soars out of the glass with vibrant notes of warm plums, fresh blackcurrants and redcurrant jelly with nuances of Indian spices, candied violets, dark chocolate and dusty soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers mouth-coating black fruits with loads of spicy accents and a firm structure of ripe, grainy tannins, finishing long and refreshing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarrel Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e(91-93)+\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pipProdProReviews_item\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Review\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"review\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"sr-only\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Rating\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"reviewRating\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_rating\"\u003e92\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\" itemprop=\"author\"\u003eWine Spectator\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProdProReviews_review\" itemprop=\"reviewBody\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRich, ripe and forward, with mouthfilling waves of plum sauce and blackberry preserve, joined by anise, singed alder and ganache notes through the finish.
