NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Château Maison Neuve Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux Rouge has a medium ruby color with moderate staining of the tears suggesting a wine of moderate extraction.The nose offers lightly savory notes complemented by aromas of black fruits, such as blackberry and black plum, accompanied by hints of cedar, tobacco, and a touch of spice. The palate of this wine is balanced and medium-bodied, with chalky tannins that provide a pleasantly, lightly drying sensation. Flavors of black fruits continue to dominate, with additional notes of plum, dark chocolate, and a subtle earthiness.
