Description
In a nutshell:
A rich, graceful and pleasingly mature Left Bank Claret.
The lowdown:
Dominque Haverlan produces reds from a number of châteaux in the Graves appellation building up a considerable expertise along the way. Vieux Châteaux Gaubert is his original property and the wines produced here are quite ageworthy. A blend of equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot it's aged for 12 months in 40% new oak following fermentation. The nose has quite a level of complexity with some savouriness among the ripe dark fruits while the palate is ripe and juicy with blackberry, coffee and a touch of dry spice. The soft, ripe tannins give it a delicious succulence.
When to drink:
Nicely developed it's ready for drinking now and over the next two or three years. Great with game dishes, or grilled red meat.
