Château Réaut de Grand Vin De Bordeaux 2016 Bordeaux Red Wines, $11.89-$13.99, 89 points, poured an opaque garnet red with thick stained legs and a clear meniscus.
Aromas of soft Allspice, slightly sour plums, violets, and a hint of mocha were interesting if not fragrant.
Near full-bodied dry red wine with good acidity, firm grainy tannin, and flavors reflective of the aromas.
Finished long, tart, and tight with a lively 14% alcohol.
Paired well with my cheeseburger.
This is not a classic red Bordeaux in that it lacks much of the fruit in a typical "young" Bordeaux, but still is lean and has a high QPR.
Varietals were 58% Merlot, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc.
