CÔTES DE BORDEAUX AOC
APPELLATION : CÔTES DE BORDEAUX AOC
GRAPE VARIETY : 70% merlot, 30% cabernet sauvignon & cabernet franc GROUND : gravel, clay & limestone AGEING: in oak barrels for 12 months TASTING NOTE: the colour is deep and purple, with a dense and brooding nose of cassis, blackberry and a touch of toasted cumin and licquorice. The palate is intense and concentrated with fresh, youthful black fruit and hints of cedar. There is great, ripe tannic grip and balancing acidity to give great structure to this youthful wine. The depth of flavour is very impressive, with damson, blackcurrant and cocoa lasting through to the finish. The smoky, sweet spices add yet another layer of complexity. While you could just about drink this now, a great future lies ahead for this wine. |
