Tasted at the vertical retrospective at the property. The 2008 Chateau Dauzac, a blend of 59% Cabernet Sauvignon and 41% Merlot, has a backward, slightly surly nose compared to the more outgoing 2007. However, it opens up with aeration and achieves impressive delineation and focus. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp, slightly chalky tannin. I like the symmetry here, the acidity well judged, the tannins showing a little coarseness towards the finish and yet there is commendable length. The 2008 marks a step up in terms of quality from previous vintages and is definitely worth looking out for. Tasted June 2015.

Dense black-red, richly concentrated blackcurrant nose with purity and depth, good richness of black fruits on the palate, firm ripe tannins, big structure with density of slightly leathery fruit that will show well for a long time.
