Château Robin 2003 Red (Côtes de Castillon)
-
$20
Stéphane Asséo, who also owns L’Aventure in Paso Robles, California, runs this estate as one of the star properties in Castillon. The wine is rich and plummy, with dense, soft fruit, dusty tannins, layers of new wood and ripe black fruits. Drink now, or keep for 2–3 years.
