Les Allees de Cantemerle Haut Medoc 2013
The wine shows an elegant, deep color with touches of black cherry, and light oak aromas which will gradually recede. Typical Cantemerle flavors of spice, tobacco and black currant predominate.
First impressions are firm and delectable; well-incorporated tannins and a fruity finish show pleasant freshness. A fine wine, pleasant, concentrated and elegant, reflecting the nobility of its terroir. With decanting it will be ready to drink in 2016, and will accompany poultry, meats and mushrooms. It has charm to spare.
