ABOUT THIS WINE
- Fully mature claret from the outstanding 2010 Bordeaux vintage – beautifully evolved and ready to drink, yet retaining impressive freshness, balance and fruit.
- Classic mature Médoc character in abundance – red berry and dried hedgerow fruit mingle with leather, woodsmoke, polished oak and sweet spice, wrapped in velvety-smooth tannins.
- Serious Bordeaux pedigree – an equal blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from Château La Cardonne, formerly owned by the Rothschild family of Château Lafite and now made by former Château Lynch-Bages winemaker Magali Guyon.
Why Cardus de la Cardonne?
A beautifully mature, classically styled Médoc from the outstanding 2010 Bordeaux vintage. An equal blend of cabernet sauvignon and merlot, Cardus de la Cardonne combines lingering red berry and dried hedgerow fruit with the wonderfully complex leather, woodsmoke, sweet spice and polished oak character that only comes with bottle age. Velvety tannins, remarkable freshness and a long, evolving finish complete a wonderfully harmonious claret that is drinking superbly now.
