Sichel Bordeaux Red

Maison Sichel first set up an acquisitions office in Bordeaux in 1883, and since then six generations of the Sichel family have built upon their empire. Not only do they sell wine today, but they are also growers and winemakers, and represent some very well-respected names. They currently own wine estates covering 350 hectares of vineyards, including Chateaux Angludet and Palmer in Bordeaux, and Chateau Trillol in Corbieres. A blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep garnet hue, with tints deep purple at rim and displaying an expressive bouquet with multiple fruits (ripe blackcurrant) and hint of oak at the end. The palate bears witness to careful craftsmanship and perfectly ripe grapes at harvesting. Delightfully balanced between extraction and a structure which is tannic but not excessively so, evolving to crunchy fruit flavours. 65% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon
