St. Julien:

A commune in the Haut Medoc district of Bordeaux. Its wines, made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot grapes, are rich, flavorful, and elegant with cedary bouquets. Modern St. Julien wines can be drunk quite young, but they age well, losing some of their blackcurrant flavor and develop a tobacco-like character.
