Tasting Notes
'[Bordeaux's 2016 wines] are full and dense, with ripe tannins and generous fruit ...' (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, April 3, 2017). This one is sourced from vines between 35 and 40 years of age planted in gravel soils atop limestone. Past vintages have consistently delivered suggestions of red plum, strawberry, cherry, tobacco, mocha and earth, with a mineral undertone and firm tannins. Pair with lamb or braised beef.
