Bordeaux 2016 Trio
Wines included
Château Batailley, Pauillac 2016
A Wine Champion in our own blind tastings this year, this deservedly popular property used a high proportion of perfectly ripe cabernet sauvignon (85%) in 2016 – often a clear sign of a great vintage in Bordeaux’s most lauded appellation. Lovely texture with fine-grained tannins and a polished sweetness on the palate. A delicious Batailley.
Château du Tertre, Margaux 2016
Produced from vines located on the highest point of the Margaux plateau, this blend of 75% cabernet sauvignon, 10% merlot, 10% cabernet franc and 5% petit verdot shows distinct left-bank character with chiselled tannins, graphite and bramble perfume and appealing dryness on the palate.
Château Latour Martillac, Pessac-Léognan 2016
A château that continues to make excellent-value wines. The 2016 is a succulent blend of 60% cabernet sauvignon, 32% merlot and 8% petit verdot, and delivers pronounced notes of cassis and tobacco on the nose with appetising, layered fruit on the palate.
