2019 Chateau La Clare Medoc

Winemaker Notes: Atypical for the Medoc, the vineyards of Chateau La Clare are planted 45% Merlot 35% Cabernet Sauvignon 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot because of the high proportion of clay in the soil. After fermentation the wine spends 12 months in French oak barriques, 60% new and 40% one year old. A soft approachable red with mixed red and black fruits with round and firm tannins.
