Chateau Blaignan Bordeaux 2016 (France: Bordeaux - Medoc) (ID# 3915)

Name Chateau Blaignan Bordeaux 2016 (ID# 3915)
Varietal Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot
Region France: Bordeaux - Medoc
Notes "Attractive violets and redcurrants with darker forest berries and graphite, too. The palate has a lithe and plush red-fruit core. Vibrant berries abound. Good wine." (James Suckling) "This generous wine comes from a 239-acre property. It has weight, layers of black-currant flavors balanced by rich tannins and juicy acidity. The fruitiness is intense, given essential freshness by the crisp aftertaste." (Wine Enthusiast)

Additional Notes

"The 2016 Château Blaignan is a well-built red that delivers nicely. This wine shines with aromas and flavors of black cherries and cassis, as well as hints of earth savory spices and oak. Pair it with a grilled, well-marbled ribeye." (Wilfred Wong, wine.com)
