The 2014 Teyssier is gorgeous. Soft, silky and nuanced, the 2014 is all about harmony. Sweet spices meld into juicy dark cherries, plums, new leather and cedar. The 2014 is a resonant, harmonious St.-Emilion with tons of near and medium-term appeal. This is an impeccably crafted wine from Jonathan Maltus. Best of all, it should also be very fairly priced. The blend is 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc.

Forward with a licorice and sweet cherry character, this tasty wine is already approachable and should deliver pleasure on release. 87-89 Pts

The Château Teyssier 2014, which according to Jonathan Maltus is the biggest brand in Saint Emilion at 15,000 cases, comes from vines on the plain, mainly from 25-hectares on sandy soil adjacent to Monbousquet, and this year consists of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc. Matured in 20% new oak, there are red cherries and kirsch scents on the nose that is nicely defined. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, simple but balanced with a little hardness towards the finish that should mellow throughout its élevage. This will drink well for 4 to 5 years.

A good core of ripe fruit with fine tannins and bright acidity. Chocolate and berry aftertaste.

89–91. Barrel Sample. The palate of this attractive wine is ripe and soft. It has forward black currant fruits, very fresh acidity and just a touch of dusty dryness. It's going to be a delicious wine in the medium-term.

A fresh, floral style, with enticing pomegranate and cherry fruit, backed by a rooibos tea hint. Offers a silky, easygoing finish.
