Château Pilet 2012 Cuvée Prestige (Côtes de Bordeaux)

Country: France / Cuvée Prestige
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Château Pilet / Côtes de Bordeaux

Big and bold, this is going to be an impressive Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon blend from a 2.5-acre plot on the Queyrens family estate. It has great red fruits and generous acidity, both of which are given a strong sense of structure by the tannins. At the moment, it is about potential, so wait until 2017.
