Tasting Notes

Mid red colour with a light tawny rim. Evolved blackcurrant/blackberry fruit with a hint of tobacco. The tannins are equally evolved which makes this Bordeaux Superieur very approachable. Chateau de Ricaud was acquired in 1980 by Alain Thienot, founder proprietor of Champagne Thienot and who is also the owner of CVBG, one of Bordeaux’s most important wine merchants
