Château Hourtin-Ducasse
Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend
2010 is RIPE right now (2022). Beautifully harmonized tannins underlining a punch of black currant and licorice with some wood chips on the finish. Beautiful wine on an excellent vintage. Patience pays. The Braille on the bottle says that.

Jul 19th, 20212011 drinking in 2021 🍷 one of my favourite family run vineyards, where buying futures are definitely recommended. 2011 vintage wasn't perfect though 10 years of age has had a positive effect. Its perhaps abit past due, however solid notes of blackberry notes and earthy undertones compliment a cherry vanilla finish. Lots of smoky pepper goodness make this an interesting and enjoyable spring night home
