2015 Chateau Barrejat (Madiran)

Old vines indeed – these vines are over 80 years old: 80% Tannat with 20% a mix of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. This wine is a very traditional and age worthy example of the region. Inky purple.Liqueur-tinged aromas of brambly fruit and cassis, concentrated black fruit with firm tannins. Plenty of oak to keep it going – a really well structured wine that can be enjoyed now or kept for years.
