The 2022 Boutisse is classy and polished, with terrific vibrancy in its red-toned fruit. A wine of poise and finesse, Boutisse is super-impressive in 2022.

Red and black fruits, spicy wood, tobacco, and hints of chocolate all emerge from the 2022 Château Boutisse, a charming, medium to full-bodied, plush, sexy Saint-Emilion. It's already hard to resist, yet this will drink nicely over the coming 15 years or more if well stored. The blend is 92% Merlot, 3% each of Cabernet Franc and Carménère, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon, all aged 16 months in 30% new barrels.
