Tasty, friendly Bordeaux from Saint-Estèphe made with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The Château itself is well-known for its oriental-style ediface, built by founder Louis-Gaspard d'Estournel (who went on to live to the ripe old age of 91) at the start of the 19th century. One to lay down and perhaps enjoy in the early 2020s.
Ripe plums, cassis, ripe tannins, spice and a hint of tobacco.
