CHATEAU VALENTIN 2016 Red Blend (Bordeaux, France)

The Château Deyrem Valentin 2016 Red Blend hails from the Margaux region in Bordeaux, France. This wine is a dry, full-bodied blend crafted from 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 49% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot. On the palate, expect flavors of blackberry, black currant, and a delightful touch of smokiness and spice. The tannins are textured and fine. While it’s already good now, it’s projected to be even better by 2024, and you can cellar it until 2035. Some wine enthusiasts have described it as having a rich, smoky character with fine tannins that mingle beautifully with the black-currant fruit and dusty texture. It’s a wine that should be ready to enjoy from 2024 onward.
