WINE DESCRIPTION

Château Leboscq Médoc is a distinguished wine from the Médoc appellation, situated on the left bank of the Gironde estuary in Bordeaux, France. This wine is crafted primarily from a blend of classic Bordeaux grape varieties, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, grown in gravelly soils that provide excellent drainage and reflect heat, aiding in the ripening process. The crushed grapes were processed by fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to ensure precision and purity of flavor. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels, a portion of which are new, for about 12-18 months to add complexity and structure.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Château Leboscq Médoc features a deep ruby color and an enticing bouquet of blackcurrant, plum, and blackberry, complemented by hints of cedar, tobacco, and subtle oak spices.On the palate, it is full-bodied and well-balanced, with firm yet grainy tannins and flavors of dark fruit, mocha, and a touch of graphite. The finish is long and elegant, showcasing the wine's harmonious blend and excellent aging potential.
