Chateau Tour de Biot, Bordeuax, France ’05

Grapes: Cabernets and Merlot
Each: £7.60

A really good introduction to modern Claret. The wine has clarity of flavours and elegant focus. Berry and cherry fruits dominate the nose and carry through the palate. A firm hit of tannin and alcohol support this fruit heightening the flavours rather than dominating. The finish shares a hint of liquorice.
Claret with flavour and focus – a pair far too often neglected but mastered here.
