Chateau des Moines Malbec

Tasting notes

Vintage 2020 :

Atypical Lalande de Pomerol wine made from Malbec grapes.
This deep-colored vintage, with hints of violets and licorice, is rich in substance, with its characteristic plum and smoky notes on the palate, supported by a spicy finish. Beautiful structure, a rich, full-bodied wine.

To be enjoyed with a well-stocked cheese platter, or with tapas based on
spicy meat or cold cuts.
