Made at the Grand Village estate but mostly from Fronsac, the deep ruby/purple-colored 2016 Acte 8 offers terrific finesse and elegance in its mulberry and black raspberry fruits. Showing more camphor, graphite, and earthy, dried flower notes with time in the glass, it has thrilling purity and balance, fine tannins, and a great finish. A class act, it’s easily one of the finest wines of the vintage from Fronsac. A blend of 52% Merlot and 48% Cabernet Franc from clay and limestone soils, it’s going to drink beautifully for 10-15 years.
