Château Chantemerle 2018
€14.90
Médoc Château Chantemerle 2018 is a red wine with a beautiful, deep purplish color. On the palate, we discover a bouregois cru, fruity, acidic, with an easy, pleasant style, lightly framed, that can be enjoyed without delay. Its powerful, well-balanced nose reveals complex aromas of small garden berries and blackberries.
