The 2016 Teyssier is made up of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc aged in 25% new French oak. It has a medium garnet-purple color and reveals baked plums, warm blackberries and black cherry compote notes with touches of garrigue, pencil lead and cloves. Medium to full-bodied, the palate gives up loads of fresh, vibrant black fruits with a velvety texture and great freshness, finishing long with plenty of earthy sparks.
This luscious wine is already accessible, displaying boisterous fruit tones and smooth, velvet tannins. Generous and ripe, it has density along with freshness at the end.
In 1994 Jonathan Malthus, Englishman originally from Africa, realized his old dream – sold his industrial engineering firm and bought a vineyard in the heart of French winemaking - Bordeaux, Saint-Emillione. Arriving in Saint-Émilion during the ‘garage period’ in the 1990s when breaking the rules of classic Bordeaux was all the rave, Jonathan soon gained a reputation for being able to produce a range of wines which stood out just as successfully for being unique as for being top quality. Bold winemaking technologies: extremely low yields, double grape re-harvesting, low-temperature fermentation, helped British winemaker make the Saint-Emillion grand cru list. Mr. Maltus has always been a strong believer that a bottle of wine should be judged by the taste of its contents over the ‘big name’ label slapped on the front.
