Country: France / Espérance
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Château l’Espérance / Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux
Named Espérance (hope) by the South African owner, the château has produced a firm, structured wine from this exceptional vintage. It is still young, full of black-currant fruit and fresh acidity that contrast with the dark tannins that extend throughout the wine. Drink from 2018.
