Château Grand-Maison 2009 Cuvée Spéciale Red (Côtes de Bourg)
- $19
As happens in Côtes de Bourg, Malbec forms part of the blend in this wine. This would explain the firm dry tannins that give it a big structure and weight. Along with the dry character, there is the beginnings of red berry fruit. The wine needs several years.
