Chateau Massereau Cuvee X is a delightful expression of the Bordeaux Superieur region, showcasing a beautiful deep red color that captures the eye. This wine is predominantly made from Merlot, complemented by vibrant hints of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot, creating a rich tapestry of flavors. Its full-bodied nature offers a remarkable mouthfeel, balanced with a lively acidity that brings freshness to each sip. The tannins are notably structured, providing a firm backbone that enhances its age-worthiness.
