Cour du Prieuré - Graves Rouge 2023 (750ml) Riverina

Cour du Prieuré - Graves Rouge 2023 (750ml) RiverinaAn outstanding value in Left Bank Cabernet Sauvignon with just 10% Merlot for volume and 5% Petit Verdot for complexity and spice. Serves up the dark, ripe, black fruit that the 2018 vintage is known for blackcurrant and blackberry plus the crushed stone minerality that you'd expect from Graves on the Left Bank, just south of the city of Bordeaux. The fruit sustains with excellent intensity and length on the finish with currant, and cured tobacco

After a reasonable winter

structured and fine-grained

vinified individually by cru and variety

88-91 points Burghound

and Pinot Meunier and from the trio of vintages 2014

round cabernet with density and length

with a vivid ruby hue and little in the way of any bricking

Japanese yuzu and wilted yellow flowers infuse the citrus fruit

with an easygoing nature

It will bring out the richness and diversity of seafood at the start of any meal

yet it’s certainly drinking nicely

Slightly saline finish marked by a magnificent tension and freshness leaving an great memory and pleasure
