This Organic Bordeaux Superieur Rouge is made from 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. A beautiful dark ruby wine, well structured and full of character. Elegant and complex flavor. Spicy background tannin.
Daniel Hernandez-Brun for K&D: 91 Points
La Blanquerie is a wine that I find always delivers terrific value, and the 2021 continues this trend. Its ruby color with hints of purple at the rim belie its youth, but already this is shaving off its baby fat. Aromas of black raspberry, dark chocolate, espresso, and leaf litter are characteristic of Bordeaux, and palate is juicy and well-structured, with generous black fruit that paves the way for secondary notes of pepper, spice, and tobacco. Dusty tannins at the finish and just the faintest touch of sweetness.
