Château Chantemerle 2021
€14.50
Médoc Château Chantemerle 2021 is a red wine with a beautiful ruby-red color with garnet highlights. Its powerful, well-balanced nose reveals complex aromas of ripe red fruit jam, black fruit, spices and flowers, finishing on mineral notes. This Bordeaux is full-bodied and fruity, with a tannic structure worthy of a great wine for laying down!

TASTING COMMENTS
On the palate, this wine expresses notes of pulpy/ripe wild blackcurrant, crushed blackberry and a hint of licorice, combined with hints of crushed strawberry, violet, cardamom, a touch of crushed black berries and a subtle hint of chocolate (in the background). The tannins offer a very fine mellowness.
