Château Marquis D’Alesme Becker 2014

“Classic in its blend (four varieties, with Cabernet Sauvignon at the top, followed by Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot), this wine has an equally classic burgundy color, but superb depth. The bouquet is distinguished by its intensity, elegance, and complexity; it rises to the top with vanilla, toast, and cocoa notes, which are followed by a beautiful range of ripe fruits (black fruits, cherry, and strawberry). Equally flattering, perfectly balanced and long, the palate imposes itself by its ample attack, by its solid matter, structured by well extracted and already coated tannins. Everything promises a memorable bottle in a few years.”
