2016 vintage. Second wine of Château d'Agassac, owned at the time by French insurance company Groupama (and since 2021 by Gerald Jiquel who also owns Fourcas-Dupré in Listrac). Hard to beat for value for money at 9,90 euro! Classic Haut-Médoc with impeccable balance.Abv. 13%.

Sep 10th, 2024A very decent Bordeaux.
Gravel & black currant leaf dominate with some dark fruit and a touch cassis following.
On the palate this is quite smooth with the tannins already mellowing and the typical savoury-sweet mix you’re looking for. Good balance, nice finish.
For 12€, what’s not to like!

Jan 24th, 2022Somewhat of a pale, dry Bordeaux, not bad but not distinctive. Will give some time to breath. Some dark berry, tobacco, pretty smooth.
