Château Les Grands Maréchaux Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux 2016
The current owners have been fortunate to enjoy a string of exceptional vintages since acquiring Château Les Grands Maréchaux, including the one that gave rise to this claret. It provided perfectly ripe fruit for winemaker Stéphane Derenoncourt to perform his magic with. Having worked at several prestigious Saint Emilion estates, including La Mondotte, Canon La Gaffelière, and Pavie Macquin, Stephane is a legend in Bordeaux.
There’s a lot to like about the depth in this wine, from the aromas of violets and purple berries to the sleek, succulent and energetic feel of the palate. This has focus and persistence. - James Suckling
