Château Les Tuileries AOC Bordeaux SCE Chateau Roquefort, 2016

Lot

1926

Grape Variety

Merlot

Producer

Chateau Roquefort

The limestone soils at Château Les Tuileries produce firm structured reds more age-worthy than most estates in the Entre-Deux-Mers. The 2016 expresses Parma violet and dark chocolate aromas and remains youthful and tight on the palate with a fine texture. Surprisingly, this wine is predominantly Merlot, its vibrant linear style suggesting more Cabernet Sauvignon, showing the impact of the limestone plateau.
