Château les Moines 2009
France, Médoc AOC
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot
Description
Château les Moines 2009 is a beautifully rich wine made from perfectly ripened grapes. Profound red with ruby and deep purple tints. Wonderfully generous nose, with notes of plum and blackcurrant, as well as blackberry and a hint of tobacco. Beguilingly supple, silky palate, displaying lingering tannins and great elegance. Good ageing potential. A great Médoc, the result of an outstanding vintage.
