Château Canada 2015
Bordeaux, FranceChâteau Canada is on a bit of roll, like a lot of the lesser-known Bordeaux properties that are getting their act together. The Château has been around for 155 years and makes wines from 30-year-old vines spread over the rolling hills of Cubzac-les-Ponts. This mix is a 70/30 blend of merlot and cabernet sauvignon, averaging 30 years in age, and the style is fresh and modern. The attack is juicy, the fruit much riper than previous editions, with classic dried cherry, earth, cedar and tobacco with a twist of balsamic in the back end. You could drink this now or through 2020 for best results, Steak frites anyone? Solid.Tasted: 24 April 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $19.49 | 750ml | BCLS |
