Château Mayne-Vieil, Fronsac

Producer: Château Mayne-Vieil

Region: Bordeaux

Sub-region: Fronsac

Vintage: 2018

ABV: 14.5%

Grape varieties: 100% Merlot

Tasting note: A ripe and pure nose, offering creamy black fruit and dark roast coffee. Tannins are firm but ripe and beautifully pure and linear, and the palate is concentrated and already well-knit, if still a little youthful. Packed with intense black, mulberry-flavoured fruit, the ripeness makes this very drinkable now and it will continue to develop more complexity over the next 5 years.

Food Matching: Roasted or grilled red meats and mature cheeses.
