Château Haut Barrail – Médoc – Cru Bourgeois – 2016 – Bordeaux

Intense garnet, with black tendencies. Fine wine with aromas of ripe fruit and toasted almonds. Soft and fruity, lingering aroma. This is very ripe, leaning toward the jammy side, with plums and currants. But it comes out really nicely. It’s full-bodied and layered with rich fruit and tannins. Nicely done.
