The 2018 Villemaurine has a deep garnet-purple color. It delivers notes of black raspberries, kirsch, and warm plums, plus suggestions of dried herbs and tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is firm and chewy, with just enough savory laced fruit and a spicy lift on the finish.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Wine Spectator

Ripe and solid, with dark plum and blackberry compote notes framed by a hint of roasted apple wood. The grippy, slightly tarry edge to the finish is a touch extracted in feel, but the fruit pushes through. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2024. 2,700 cases made, 500 cases imported.
