Grape

Cabernet Franc, Merlot

Origin
Lussac is one of five villages to the northeast of St-Emilion with the right to add that name to their own. Lussac makes excellent 'satellite' wines, slightly more rustic than its big brother, but rounded and with great charm.
Taste
This is a rich, full bodied wine showing great concentration of flavour. With juicy black fruit on the nose and palate backed up by a smoky sandalwood character.
Enjoy
This will make a great accompaniment to hearty meat dishes and strong cheeses.

    A pleasant surprise

    Not being from a top year I don't think I was too hopeful of this wine but liked it so much I bought a crate. This is what good quaffling claret should be: it has a pleasantly old fashioned sapidity, a pleasing austere tannic twist, well balanced and structured with a decently long finish. Cleanly made with a splash of vivid fruit, this is a splendid sunday lunch wine - I for one didn't think that claret this good could be got at £8 any more.

    A little beauty is this Lussac St Emilion

    My first wine is Chateauneuf Du Pape, my second is St Emilion, this wine is smooth, warm and thoroughly enjoyable. I consider 2009 to have been a good year for wine, this bottle does much to confirm I am right! Give it a chance.......for the price it is superb value.
