WINE DESCRIPTION
Château Canteloup Médoc is a Grand Vin de Bordeaux from the Médoc region, celebrated for its remarkable price-quality ratio. It predominantly features Cabernet Sauvignon complemented by Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Following temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine ages in oak barrels for several months. Despite this, oak flavors do not dominate. Instead, the wine shines with a vibrant ruby color and a fresh, elegant body. Its bouquet exudes aromas of fresh dark fruits with subtle spice notes. On the palate, it is fresh and supported by pleasant tannins and mineral nuances, culminating in a lingering finish.
