CHATEAU LA CARDONNE 2016 375mL

Often referred to as ‘Bordeaux’s most charming wine.’ This former Lafite-Rothschild vineyard is now managed by Andrew McInnes, and Magali Guyon, who are constantly searching for finesse and harmony, to produce truly memorable wines that fully express the nature of their unique little plots of land that sit on the highest plateau in the Médoc. The vineyard is planted with a grape mix of 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc, and the vines average 30 years of age. After vinification specially adjusted to suit each varietal, Chateau La Cardonne wines are blended and aged for 12-14 months in French oak barrels, after which they are bottle-aged in the chateau’s spectacular underground cellar.
