Chateau Saint Esteve d'Uchaux

My favourite of Marc’s reds, it is delicious for drinking now and has lots of cellar potential. It has a mellow bouquet with ripe black cherries, blueberries and vanilla toast enhanced by a savoury olive edge. Rich and smooth on the palate, it is well balanced with the structure to develop. Produced from vines planted over fifty years ago, it is a 50:50 blend. A year of low rainfall from winter through to harvest produced hugely concentrated grapes.
