Description
In a nutshell:
A well rounded and supple Claret from a the Entre-Deux Mers region of Bordeaux.
The lowdown:
This attractive blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon spends time in a mix of oak barriques and stainless steel following fermentation which gives just the right balance for an early drinking Claret. On the nose blackcurrant aromas mingle with herbaceous notes of mint and thyme, cedar and gentle oak spice while the palate is medium bodied with plenty of earthy, spicy black fruit flavours supported by attractive oak notes and integrated tannins.
The Producer:
Vignobles Ducourt is based in the commune of Ladaux in the the heart of the Entre-Deux-Mers region south east of Bordeaux. In the 1950s the business was built into a substantial operation be Henri Ducourt and now owns 14 châteaux with a vineyard area extending to 450 hectares. Currently at the helm are three of Henri's grandchildren, Bernard, Phillipe and Marie Christine. Their vineyards are all cultivated in the agriculture raisonnée system where they aim to reduce use of artificial pesticides and use minimally interventionist methods. Their extensive range of wines fully reflects their ethos and there's excellent quality to be found here at pleasantly modest prices.
When to drink:
A dependably reliable and good value Claret. It goes well with roasts, charcuterie and mature cheese.
