Bordeaux, France, 75cl

Château du Lort is crafted from an atypical blend of 64% Merlot, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Petit Verdot. The palate shows fine, oaky flavours of cocoa, coffee and vanilla intermingled with cooked strawberries and some cassis. The fine, silky tannin structure wraps this wine up perfectly and makes it an ideal accompaniment to fine charcuterie, roasted poultry, veal, a good cut of beef or mature cheeses.
