Chateau De Chambert Grand Vin 2018 (750ml)
Product price
Description
Château de Chambert's Grand Vin is a 2018 Malbec from Cahors, in southwest France. This is pure Malbec, aged for 18 months in foudre and wooden tanks, built for patience and cellar time.
The wine greets you with spice and cedar, layered with pepper and dark berry fruit. Medium to full-bodied, it's structured around a firm, assertive tannin frame that gives the wine real grip and density on the finish. This is serious stuff, the kind of wine that will soften and integrate over time, but right now it demands either a bold dish or the patience to let it develop further in the bottle.

Expert Reviews
The 2018 Grand Vin, composed solely of Malbec grown on limestone, clay and red clay soils, exudes a spicy bouquet of cedar, oak, pepper and dark berries. This medium to full-bodied Cahors is deep and firm, underscored by an assertive tannic structure that leads to a robust, dense finish. Aged for 18 months in foudres and wooden tanks, this wine will benefit from some time to mellow.
