Tasting Notes

This large vineyard in Macau (near Cantemerle and Giscours, not Hong Kong) produces a blend of 50% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot. It is a consistent choice among shrewd wine consumers looking for good value from Bordeaux. The deep ruby-colored 2006 exhibits sweet red and black currant aromas intermixed with notions of toasty oak, damp earth, and spice. Richly fruity, soft, and round, it is best drunk over the next 3-4 years.
