Chateau La Croix Blanche, Francs Cotes de Bordeaux

Chateau La Croix Blanche is a 7 hectare estate in the newly named appellation of Francs Côtes de Bordeaux. It is farmed organically with the Grand Vin having a balance of 85% Merlot with 15% Cabernet Franc. Lively aromas combining cassis and asian spices, with notes of redcurrant and raspberry. To taste, it is full bodied and juicy with fine grained tannins and a lovely balanced finish with refreshing acidity.

A wine to enjoy now, though it can be kept 2 to 3 years.
