WINE DESCRIPTION
Château Les Carregades Médoc is a dry red wine produced in the Médoc, located on the left bank of the Gironde estuary of Bordeaux, France. It is made from a classic blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot grapes, that together create a structured wine with good balance and an array of flavors. Following the fermentation process, this wine is matured in oak barrels for up to 12 months, which gives it a smooth texture and notes of baking spices that perfectly complement the dark fruit profile.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Château Les Carregades Médoc shimmers in the glass with a medium ruby color.On pouring the nose reveals a bouquet of black fruits, such as blackberry and blackcurrant, along with hints of spice and cedar. On the palate, it shows good balance between the fruit concentration and lightly grippy tannins. The wine boasts excellent freshness, lifted by a fine thread of acidity that carries on the modest finish. The final impression is marked by dark fruit, a delicate invigorating herbaceous quality and a lick of oak spice.
