N°1 Red
AOC Bordeaux
N°1 Rouge is a red Merlot – Cabernet Sauvignon blend. The wine harnesses all the skills and expertise of the growers, who work hand in hand with the Dourthe winemakers to guarantee optimum, consistent fruit quality. Aged in new French oak barriques, this is a rounded, complex wine, where the oak tannins integrate harmoniously with those present in the wine.
Tasting notes
Deep, lovely red-ruby appearance for N°1 Bordeaux red 2021. Charming on the bouquet, a hint of toast intermingles with red and black berry fruit aromas. Initially sumptuously smooth on the palate, the wine gains momentum to unleash delicious, fruit-laden texture, oozing freshness and appealing spicy notes. Very well-balanced overall, backed by rounded, silky tannins and culminating in a long, fruity final woven with well-integrated oak.
