"A beautiful dark red wine with crimson hues

The finished beer's aroma exhibits hints of lime zest and an herbal

made in its purest and most naked form

fermented in 4-5 year old French Oak

maybe some warmth though it feels generous rather than overt

Chateau Cantemerle - Haut Medoc Grand Cru 2017 3L special~cellarcollection "A beautiful dark red wine"Rich plum colour, 20% down on volume due to frost but still delivering plenty of damson fruit on the nose. This feels slick and well extracted, with smoked grilled notes from oak. Dark fruits, extremely polished, not as concentrated as some vintages so no need to wait too long, but this really manages to deliver polished fruit and an overall enjoyable experience. 40% new oak.
