Château Rauzan-Gassies L'Orme de Rauzan-Gassies Haut-Médoc 2018

Rich and earthy wine with a dimensional character, its dry follow through would pair well with a variety of cured meats and cheeses.

Deep and detailed wine with a smooth texture, boasting a profound red hue. The aroma is recognized by a light yet alluring blend of sweet and savory notes, bringing undertones of perfume, tobacco, vanilla, and a touch of earthy undertones. The tanginess is moderate, yielding a rich and juicy experience, with nuances of ripe red plum, blueberry, and a hint of smokiness. The finale is moderate, leaving a enduring impression of warmth and depth. This wine is well-suited for pairing with a variety of dishes, specifically those featuring concentrated and savory ingredients. A good option for those aiming for a full-bodied, yet approachable, wine.

Surprising wine with a intense Bordeaux terroir and a smooth, gentle chocolate and vanilla flavor profile. I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it to be an excellent merit for its price.
