Cabernet Franc, Merlot

Origin
Château Destieux was promoted to St-Émilion Grand Cru Classé in the 2006 classification of producers in the St-Émilion region on the right bank of the Gironde river. Famous for muscular, mouth-filling wines, Destieux's 1997 retains its perfume and concentration in age.
Taste
Ruby red in colour with a lightly coloured rim, aromas of ripe cassis, smoke, earth, leather, perfume and Cuban tobacco. Fully ripe with a silky mouthfeel, elegantly structured with an earthy finish.
Enjoy
Classic mature Claret, drinking at its peak now. An ideal match with roasted meats, steak, roasted vegetables and game.

    Definitely worth it

    A very elegant wine. Beautiful underlying sweetness that creeps in as you drink it. Perfectly balanced. Definitley worth the money.
