Chateau Cissac, Haut-Medoc Bordeaux, France 2018
£23.99Price
A beautifully structured and elegant Cru Bourgeois from the renowned Haut-Médoc appellation of Bordeaux. Deep ruby red in colour, the nose reveals enticing aromas of ripe blackcurrants, dark cherries and blackberries, complemented by classic notes of cedarwood, tobacco, graphite and subtle sweet spice. The palate is rich, generous and wonderfully balanced, offering layers of ripe dark fruits, cassis and a touch of liquorice, supported by firm yet refined tannins and well-integrated oak. A lovely freshness provides elegance and structure, leading to a long, satisfying finish with lingering notes of black fruit, gentle spice and savoury complexity.
