Dourthe Grands Terroirs Bordeaux Rouge

Dourthe's Grands Terroirs Bordeaux Rouge from Pessac-Léognan showcases the classic marriage of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in one of Bordeaux's most prestigious left-bank appellations. The wine opens with dominant blackcurrant and dark plum fruit, supported by cedary oak and subtle herbaceous notes. A medium-full body and medium-high tannin structure provide backbone and aging potential, while tertiary tobacco and graphite notes emerge on the finish, suggesting complexity that will develop further in the cellar. This is a food-friendly yet serious Bordeaux suited to both near-term enjoyment and medium-term cellaring.
