2018 Château Meaume 'Reserve du Château', Bordeaux Superieur
Bordeaux 2018 was a particularly good vintage for merlot - especially at Château Méaume where their 'Réserve du Château' is sourced from their oldest vines. Merlot vines each at an average age of 50+ years, whose low yields make for a wonderfully rich, concentrated wine. Tasting the 2018 we were deliciously reminded of just how rich, how concentrated, and dazzled by how beautifully the vintage is now drinking. Thrilled by the power and depth that assures it at least another ten years of glorious cellaring.
