Chateau Relais de la Poste 2014 Cotes du Bourg Cuveee Malbec Bordeaux

Château du Relais de la Poste produces an unusual single varietal wine made form Malbec, a grape not that common in Bordeaux anymore. It used to be part of most blend decades ago but only a few Château are still growing it nowadays. The nose shows aromas of blackberry, chocolate, a touch of black pepper and floral scents. Palate is medium-bodied, has plenty of fruit notes, a nice freshness and a woody taste, that should soften with a few years in the bottle.
