Long Dai 2019

Long Dai is the Shandong estate of Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) in Penglai. A Bordeaux-inspired blend from terraced granite hillsides.

Tasting note (James Suckling): “A wine that you should decant properly if you decide to open now. Pretty red-berry fruit, fresh blueberries and black cherries, nuanced spices and understated sandalwood and fine, stemmy freshness, evolving to violets and minerals. The medium-to full-bodied palate is hit by a dollop of tight and fine-grained tannins that dissipate into the fruit. This is also a vintage in which I feel Long Dai shows less acidity, which renders a mellow and calm sensibility. It’s quite dry, if not a little austere at first, but when you give it time to breathe, you will find more generosity on the palate with sweeter fruit.”
