Château Bouscaut Pessac-Léognan Tinto

Description

Old wine bottles may show traces of dust and damaged labels, as expected given their age. Garrafeira Nacional is committed to storing all wines at the correct temperature and humidity, yet it always chooses to preserve the visual character inherent to their age. We select brands/regions that, normally, reveal distinct characteristics in tastings of aged wines. However, we note that wine is a living organism exposed to time, and even while sealed in a bottle, its aromas evolve differently. Thus Garrafeira Nacional cannot be held responsible for the product's quality, as it is an aged wine. Our recommendation is to open the bottle and let the wine aerate first, which will help release its natural aromas after so many years of closure. If you decide to decant the wine before serving, ensure you do so patiently to detect the appearance of sediment that an old wine tends to develop. (illustrative image)
