Chateau Roques Mauriac Grand Vin 2009 - Bordeaux, France

Dark inky blue colour. Dried cocoa, hung cured meats wrap around some choc-cherry aromas. The palate is juicy at first but leads into some youthful, drying tannin. Another 3-4 years in bottle should yield a much more pleasant wine. Certainly excellent value and worth seeking out to drink over the next few years. A$17/bottle

86 Points
