Chateau Desmirail - Margaux Red 2015

Grape

60% Cabernet-Sauvignon and 40% Merlot.

Tasting notes

 after a so-so 2014, the excellent 2015 château desmirail makes amends. it comes with a very comely, feminine and perfumed nose brandishing a whole bunch of rose petals in the glass. the palate is very well balanced, fleshy but still structured with fine grain tannin. it feels a little oaky towards the finish, but that should be subsumed with 4-5 years in bottle. one to check out after 3-4 years when it has found its groove.
