Chateau Lanessan 2016, 750ml

A blend of 60% Cab, 35% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot and 1% Cab Franc. Aged fir 12 months in 30% new oak.

Tasting Note:

The finest wine of the decade at this address is the 2016 Lanessan, a terrific effort that unwinds in the glass with aromas of dark berries, cassis, cigar wrapper, sweet soil tones and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, layered and impressively concentrated, with a deep core of fruit, velvety tannins and a penetrating finish, it represents a terrific value—and gives a sense of what this estate is capable of.
