It’s an uneven vintage on the right bank in 2014, the key factors for success being soil type, work in the vineyard and a percentage of Cabernet Franc in the blend.
As with the rest of Bordeaux, the Right Bank experienced a reasonably successful flowering cool, wet July and August, and the saving grace of an Indian summer. But there was more rain than on the Left Bank (particularly in the months of July, August and September) – although it varied by sector – and the earlier-ripening Merlot not only swelled but benefited less from the fortuitous late-season weather.
