Château Dauzac, Bordeaux Rouge, France 2019

56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot

The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot makes this nicely balanced wine that is full bodied and delicate in the mouth. The smooth and refined tannins are in keeping with the spirits of the greatest Bordeaux wines with a generous finish.

Derived from terroirs outside of Margaux, its specifications meet the same standards for virtuous and respectful wine-making that are applied at Château Dauzac. Bordeaux de Dauzac is vegan, i.e. it was free of products of animal origin. The property innovated by replacing traditional egg white with a plant paste in the fining phase.

Fermentation in stainless steel vats is followed by one year of ageing in vats and barrels. Ageing: 100% in barrel including 20% of new barrels.

Serve with red and white meats, game, and cheeses.
