Fifth Growth. Cinquieme Grand Cru Classe in 1855.
Expert tasting note: (2011 vintage) "Deep, dark, not quite opaque ruby-red colour. Slightly volatile black-fruit vies with meaty/earthy notes on the nose. The palate is open with lifted, slightly over-ripe black-fruit playing against tight angular tannins. The finish is drying but eventually gives up juicy red-freuit and cedary spices." - 11/15 DCAMW

Appearance: A very deep purple that corresponds to the great wines that Château Dauzac has produced in the last few years. Nose: One immediately notices the power of its aromas that are rich with promise. Today, Dauzac joins the powerhouses of the appellation, and the density of this vintage will put it directly in the light in four to five years, after the first phase of aging in bottles. Made to last, it will maintain its aromatic complexity (grilled, liquorice) which is noticeable today. Mouth-feel: The tannic structure is full and powerful with a well-mastered woodiness. The perfect balance will make this Cru Classé accessible very soon. Ideally, it will be paired with grilled red meat. One could also serve it with roasted duckling or a capon in sauce...

Aromas of blackberry and mushroom with spice and currant. Medium to full body, firm and silky tannins. A little austere but if you like the grip, here you go.

Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung, etwas verhalten, zart kräuterwürzig unterlegtes dunkles Waldbeerkonfit, ein Hauch von Lakritze, Brombeeren. Stoffig, angenehme Weichselfrucht, mit feiner Extraktsüße unterlegt, gute Tannine, mineralisch, noch sehr jugendlich, braucht seine Zeit, verfügt über gutes Reifepotenzial.
2011 Vintage
Tasted: Feb 2014
Short, medium bodied with bright red fruits, spice and earth in the dry finish. Definitely more interesting on the nose than the palate. The wine wa produced from a blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon and 48% Merlot, making it one of the largest percentages of Merlot in the Medoc . 84 Points

Tasted: Jan 2014
There is an austere, serious edge to this wine, with its dark tannins and fine black-currant acidity. It is very structured and likely to age well. Drink from 2017.
2011 Vintage
Tasted: May 2012
EN PRIMEUR - Deep garnet-red. Nose of ripe red fruits (raspberry, cherry). Full, powerful, warm and melted attack. Extracted tannins with a robust, tightly-knit finish displaying notes of liquorice and ripe plum.

Vintage quality: Poor
Current condition: Ready to drink
The 2011 Bordeaux vintage was generally poor in comparison to the brilliant 2010 and 2009.
The weather throughout the growing season was, frankly, freakish. Both the winter and spring were dry with the latter becoming unnervingly hot in places, prompting an extremely ear...
