Country: France /
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Château de Candale / Saint-Émilion
Under the watchful eye of consultant Michel Rolland, Candale has produced an intense, powerful expression of super-ripe Merlot. The tannins are dense, powering through the dark berry fruit, rounded by the wood. It could do with 4–5 years aging.
