Château Couronneau 'Cuvée Clair de Lune' Bordeaux 2019

£39.90

2.25L box (£13.30 per 75cl bottle)

Description

Growing grapes organically in rainy Bordeaux takes special kinds of people, and Christophe and Bénédicte Piat are the region’s leading practitioners. They craft dense, ultra-ripe, flavourful Merlot-based reds from bio-dynamically grown grapes and using as little sulphur as they can get away with.

Tasting Notes

This is a big wine, almost more Napa than Bordeaux, a dense, layered mouthful of rich Christmas-cakey spiced plum fruit, and some dark liquorice notes. We've been stunned by yet another brilliant vintage with the 2019, it seems the Piats can't fail to deliver.
A perfect partner for roasted meats, especially beef, and also ace with the cheese board.
