Cuvée Madeleine

2010 Castillon Cotes De Bordeaux Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon

Chateau Blanzac Cuvée Madeleine is a stunning red wine from the renowned Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux region, offering a beautiful blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. In the glass, this wine exhibits deep ruby hues that hint at its richness. On the palate, it showcases a medium-bodied structure, balanced with a vibrant acidity that brings life to the experience. The fruit intensity is prominent, presenting luscious notes of ripe blackcurrant, dark cherry, and hints of blackberry, complemented by subtle undertones of spice and tobacco, which add complexity. The tannins are notable yet refined, providing a firm backbone without overwhelming the senses. With its dry profile, this wine is wonderfully food-friendly, making it an excellent choice for pairing with grilled meats or hearty stews. Aged gracefully since its 2010 vintage, Chateau Blanzac Cuvée Madeleine delivers a well-rounded and enjoyable tasting experience that truly reflects the terroir of its region.
