tempered with an elegant smoothness

tight tannins that create concentration and persistence

lovely aromatic and pure

Powerful and meaty with an excellent bouquet that remains on post nasal

so I only tasted the 2019 Vino de Finca

Chateau Branaire-Ducru, Saint-Julien, France 2016 Vina Vik tempered with an elegant smoothnessThe core of this red is loaded with pure plum, blueberry and black currant fruit flavors. The polished structure is integrated, with alluring ganache, anise and sweet tobacco notes throughout, all in a polished and balanced frame. A very classy red that isn't shy about its power but pushes its purity to the fore. 96 Pts Wine Spectator
