"The 2016 Haut-Simard has a top-notch bouquet of gorgeous, well-defined blackberry, briar and raspberry aromas that burst from the glass. There is a floral aspect to this Saint-Emilion that the 2016 Simard does not possess. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, fine density and concentration and a very fine line of acidity. The oak (30% new) is seamlessly integrated, with a long tail on the finish. This is the finest Haut-Simard I have tasted. Excellent. Drink 2022-2038."
"Made up of 65% Merlot, and 35% Cabernet Franc, the 2016 Haut-Simard has a deep garnet-purple color and delivers a hedonistic nose of plum preserves, Black Forest cake and wild blueberries with touches of baking spices, dark chocolate and roses. Medium-bodied, the palate delivers intense black fruits and spice layers without heaviness, framed by firm, finely grained tannins and finishing on a lingering peppery note."
Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections, delicate lightening of the edges, black cherries, ripe plums, some chocolate, delicate tobacco nuances. Medium-bodied, touch of red berries, present, integrated tannins, delicate hint of dark chocolate, lingers, a versatile food accompaniment.
