2016 Vignobles Bardet Château Franc Le Maine - MAGNUM Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 1.50 Ltr. Rouge
picture of

Beautiful, dark ruby red color. Delicious aromas of forest fruits, plums, soft herbs, tobacco, leather and a hint of vanilla. Insane mouthfeel that continues to swell subtly. The long, charming finale is the crowning glory of a fantastic glass of wine and lets you enjoy it for an impressively long time. Top wine that does not need its name to impress!

A crowning glory of any classic festive meal. Red meat, lamb, game dishes and rich stews or simply as a delicacy on its own.
