Wine Spectator Top 100 wine #9
We are pleased to offer one of our best buys in Bordeaux in quite some time. Chateau Marquis d'Aleseme is a third growth property located right next door to Malescot and Chateau Margaux (some fine real estate indeed!). A long-forgotten classed growth, this is a Chateau on the rise and it remains a bargain play (for now). That will not last!
A balanced, medium- to full-bodied version, with chewy tannins framing flavors of dried cherry, cured tobacco, mineral and cocoa powder. Spiced finish. Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, Croatina and Oseleta. Drink now through 2029. 1,500 cases imported.
