Description
“This has a firm base of tannins for a Bordeaux Supérieur and needs some time for them to resolve, but there’s a lot of earthy depth, plus some hazelnut and bark character here.”
-James Suckling
Lovely bright ruby red in appearance tinged with garnet. Intense on the nose, aromas of red fruits (raspberries and fresh blackberries) define the bouquet and leads into a crunchy, aromatic and rounded palate. A lovely, well-balanced wine that culminates in a refreshing and full-flavoured finish with notes of licorice and spices.
84% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot
Since its early beginnings, Dourthe has remained true to the values underpinning its rich and unique history: a special bond with the soils, the highest quality standards and an innovative approach.
