Chateau Des Antonins, Bordeaux, France - 1.5l
If Bordeaux red had a flagship wine, this offering from Chateau des Antonins would be high in the running for such an esteemed title. The first impression comes courtesy of the striking nose, which combines fruity scents of blackcurrant, pium and cherry with an spicy, toasted undertone of tobacco. This aroma gives way to a supple, smooth and deep massage of the palate, where deep, red fruit overtones come to the fore. A hint of cedar wood adds a welcome layer of complexity, alongside smooth tannins which offer just a pinch of refreshing acidity. An uplifting and lingering honeyed finish completes an astounding experience that demands to be tasted by any enthusiast.
GRAPE
-
Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc.
WHAT IT GOES WITH
With Merlot acting as the dominant grape, this red is a perfect accompaniment for a hearty Sunday roast or similar meal. Overall, though, any meat dish - including game - will make the ideal companion meal.
ABOUT THE VINEYARD
Located in Pondaurat, a commune found in the southwest of France, Château des Antonins was built as a convent in the 13th Century, populated by monks sworn into the order of Saint Antoine. Initially used to treat victims of ergotic poisoning, the Roquefeuil family took ownership of the convent in the aftermath of the French revolution. The winery has since been handed down from generation to generation. Since 1985, Geoffroy and Martine Roquefeuil have managed 3 hectares of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon grapes, alongside a further 24 hectares dedicated to Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc.
