Tasting Note

In the glass, the Bordeaux Haut Medoc of Chateau Lestage Simon presents a dense purple color. After the first swirl, this red wine reveals a high density and fullness, which shows in strong church windows at the edge of the glass. The nose of this red wine from Bordeaux charms with nuances of mulberry, blackberry, blueberry and blackcurrant. If we trace the aromatics further, oak, Mediterranean herbs and garrigue are added, encouraged by the oak influence. On the palate, Chateau Lestage Simon's Bordeaux Haut Medoc starts out wonderfully dry, grippy and aromatic. On the tongue, this punchy red wine features an immensely fleshy texture. The finale of this youthful red wine from the wine-growing region Bordeaux, more precisely from Haut-Médoc, captivates finally with considerable reverberation.
