Domaine de Valmengaux
Red Bordeaux Blend
Bordeaux, France
Very nice, red fruited, direct and balanced Bordeaux - good tannin framework and acidity. Hints at green but remains friendly. Excellent value. Drinking well with food, still a youngster

Dec 20th, 2013A classic Bordeaux - gravelly, cedary, with the unmistakable pencil shavings & green bell peppers - an organic 85/15 blend of Merlot / Cab Franc from Fronsac. Nice precision & purity on the palate with ripe plums and juicy & polished tannins. Lacks a tiny bit in the finish but overall a v. nice Bordeaux and great value, too.
