Château La Roque de By
Médoc
Cru bourgeois
0,75
Red
We are big fans of this Médoc which is classic in style and very aromatic. It is made in Bégadan, close to the Gironde estuary, by our young friends Frédéric Le Clerc and Benjamin Richer de Forges. A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Merlot, it has a deep ruby colour, a beautiful aromatic complexity of red fruits, tobacco and cedar with a fine struture and length. Thanks to the supple tannins, the wine is ready for drinking now and over the next five years.
