Profile

Description

Smooth and supple. Firm backbone of blackcurrants, cassis and hints of saddle. Firm and taut with classic Bordeaux flavours of leather, cassis, and a dense earthiness. The Queryrens family has passed down from generation to generation, the knowledge and know-how to produce such classic examples of Bordeaux year after year. They also own the prestigious Chateau du Pin-Franc, and also Chateau du Tich in Sainte Croix du Mont. 

Pairing

Grilled ribeye steak, rosemary-infused lamb chops, roasted garlic potatoes, ratatouille, and aged cheddar cheese.

Aromas and Flavours

Plum

Sweet, fruity and sensual, similar stone fruit aromas to a peach, but without the 'fuzziness'.

Blackberry

A little sweet, a little tart, this black fruit is rather quiet but persistent.

Bell pepper

Fresh green, herbaceous notes in wine - a little is desired, a lot, not so much.

Black currant

Sometimes also referred to as 'cassis', this black fruit tasting note is common in red wines.

Leather

Ever gotten into a car with leather seats, or taken a big whiff of your dad's leather jacket?
