"EXCEPTIONAL" (Bordeaux's 2016 vintage) James Suckling
Medium-full bodied red Bordeaux with a good balance between ripe plummy fruit and berry flavours, with plenty of concentration and tannins that are fine-grained, smooth and supple.
Smooth, full-bodied with a supple and delicate character this is great quaffing claret with or without food
