Cru Monplaisir Tinto

Description

This Monplaisir Cru from Bordeaux is a wine that clearly knows how to behave – possessing the refined elegance you’d expect from the region. Initially, you’re greeted with ripe plum, fig, and a subtle graphite note – a truly delightful nose. Cabernet Sauvignon provides a solid backbone, beautifully balancing the Merlot’s softness, resulting in tannins that are both silky and present. The finish is moderately long, urging you to linger over the experience. I’d recommend pairing it with a roasted wild lamb shoulder, or perhaps alongside a good, hearty beef burger with Gruyère cheese.
