卡伯特酒莊紅葡萄酒

點擊次數：16735

Rather cedary from the start, with a light grainy edge to the modest mix of dried red currant and bitter cherry notes. There's a flash of herb through the finish, with the cedar winning out easily. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now. 3,500 cases made. –JM

The 2014 Chateau Capdet has a brisk and fresh blackberry and briary-scented bouquet with cedar and tobacco notes emerging with time. I like the focus here. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, good body and density with a classic, graphite-tinged finish that leaves you wanting another sip. Now here's a well-made Listrac! Worth seeking out. Tasted September 2016.

There is plenty of Merlot in this ripe wine which is produced in the Listrac cooperative. Spice and attractive tannins give the wine structure and perfume. They contrast with the juicy blackberry fruits and fine crisp acidity. The wine will be ready to drink from 2021.

Smooth, rich and rounded, this is produced by the Listrac cooperative. Full of ripe, blackberry fruits, open tannins and a full, dense character, it's likely to be ready soon, so drink from 2016.
