Marquis de Mores - Saint Emilion - 2014

Saint - Emilion is the other prestigious appellation on the Right Bank, bordering Pomerol to the west. The wines are made of mainly Merlot and Cabernet Franc. As the climate here is slightly cooler and damper, with the soils less well drained than on the Le Bank, Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to achieve full ripeness here. The quality of the wines from Saint - Emilion varies quite substantially and there is an internal classification to give an indication of the best wines. The top wines are divided into two groups, Premier Grand Cru Classés A and B. There are currently four wines with the highest A classification: Ausone, Angelus, Cheval Blanc and Pavie.
