This Grand Cru wine from Chateau Cantemerle is made from 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot. 5% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc. It is aged for 12 months in French Oak (medium toast) of which 40% are new oak.

This tender vintage produced tasty wines that are ready to drink despite their youth, pairing well with lightly-flavored foods or white meats. The soft extraction of the tannins and a careful selection in the cellars to preserve a fresh and clean character on the palate stand out with this wine.

The bouquet is still discreet, with aromas of cinnamon, blackberry, fig and wood notes that become evident after agitation; decanting will bring out still other aromas. This wine is so easy to enjoy that your glass is ready to be refilled before you know it…
