Chateau Le Boscq
Château Le Boscq is a fine wine from Saint-Estèphe, and classified Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel. Ideally situated next to the Gironde estuary, Le Boscq elegantly combines the power of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, with the delicacy of Merlot. The wines are charming, velvet-textured and spicy, enhanced by lovely rich tannins, and well-balanced and refined on the finish.
Tasting notes
Château Le Boscq 2022 is deep and concentrated on the eye and tinged with purple. Heady and complex, the bouquet opens aromas redolent of cigar box, ripe fruits and gentle spices. Initially supple on the palate, the wine gains in texture and concentration, offering caressing, powerful tannins. Beautifully balanced, the wine finishes on a lengthy crescendo of dark fruit flavours, spice and cedar, typical of the complex, outstanding terroir.
