Château de Roquebrune 2012 Cuvée Reine (Lalande de Pomerol)

Country: France / Cuvée Reine
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Château de Roquebrune / Lalande de Pomerol

Superripe Merlot has pushed up the alcohol in this wine. It gives a rich, opulent texture of blackberry jam flavors that are well balanced by the acidity and perfumed character. The broad, generous character gets a fresh lift from the final acidity. Drink from 2018. This Guinjard family wine is 95% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon from a 19-acre vineyard.
