Château Lamoliere 2016
Fronsac, Libourne, Bordeaux, FranceThis blend of merlot (86%) and cabernet franc (14%) leads with a fresh, bright-fruited nose of dark cherries and raspberries, along with a dusting of oak spices, fresh herbs, and cedar. On the palate, it's medium bodied and lively, with fine grained, sculpted tannins that speak to the deft winemaking of the now deceased Patrick Leon, former wine director of Château Mouton Rothschild. Perfect now with French bistro fare, but it certainly has the complexity and fruit concentration to improve with a few more years in the cellar.
