The second wine of this Grand Cru Classé Saint-Émilion estate, Le Benjamin de Sansonnet 2016, is a terrific offering - often outshining many 'first' wines. Predominantly Merlot, it’s brimming with ripe plum fruit, backed by a touch of blackcurrant and gentle spice. The palate strikes a lovely balance between juicy richness and savoury depth, with supple, well-ripened tannins giving it an easy, approachable feel.
It’s ready to enjoy now, showing all the charm of the 2016 vintage—ripe, balanced, and sophisticated. A great reminder that second wines can deliver serious quality and real drinking pleasure.
