Château Canada 2016 Bordeaux Supérieur

Bordeaux, France

A blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, we tried the 2016 two years ago and found it dry and flat. This time however was a different story: at seven years the tannins had softened into a nicely balanced, earthy wine with notes of plum and blackberry. A late bloomer to be sure. Decant it for at least one hour before serving. Serve with beef, lamb and poultry.
