Côtes de Bourg

Medium

Cork

Ripe and concentrated blackcurrant and touches of vanilla and exotic spice are given bounce by chewy tannins that present a wide and full mouthfeel. It's relatively intense in terms of flavours but it has a smooth texture and keeps a focussed core with a long finish. Clearly sun-kissed fruit, leaning into the vintage, but cool mint and some spicy liquorice provide nice counters and give some freshness. A blend of 80% Merlot, 15% Malbec, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.
