Chateau du Retout, Haut Medoc Cru Bourgeois 2016
Awards: 91 pts Wine Enthusiast
Grape variety: 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot
The wine comes from the heart of Haut-Médoc between Margaux and Saint-Julien.
Elegant , with round tannins, wines that charms by their volume and their great aromatic persistence.
“First it is a structured wine, with black fruits and layers of ripe tannins. Then, the dominance of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend gives the wine its taut, mineral texture as well as the ability to age”. Roger Voss
Food pairing recommendation: A great wine to enjoy with stews such as boeuf bourguignon and a nice farmhouse cheese platter.
