2016 Château Blaignan, Médoc

About This Wine

his Médoc red blend (typically Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot) from the highly-rated 2016 vintage presents a deep ruby color. On the nose, it offers inviting aromas of blackcurrant, black cherry, and hints of spice, fresh tobacco, and cedar. The palate is medium-bodied with a good structure and elegant, often described as silky, tannins. It delivers vibrant red and dark fruit flavors, often with savory or earthy undertones, and a fresh, juicy acidity. It's known for being approachable in its youth but also having the capacity to age for a few more years.
