Chateau La Coussade Bordeaux 2020

''This Bordeaux made from 50% Merlot & 50% Cabernet Sauvignon is very expressive with its generous bouquet of black fruits (blackcurrant) and spices. Ample, full and fleshy in mouth. A wine of character.'' Le Guide Hachette 2023 (France)

This has a deep ruby colour with aromas of blackberry, black cherry, and vanilla. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with a rich, velvety texture and flavours of dark fruit, including blackcurrant and plum. The tannins are well-integrated and provide a nice structure to the wine, without being overpowering.

As the wine opens up, it reveals more complex notes of tobacco, leather, and spice. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a pleasant lingering taste of dark fruit and oak.
