Chateau Grand Meynau Bordeaux presents a dark deep ruby red. Intense, ripe fruits such as plum, raspberry and black cherry expose a lovely complexity when the hint of creamy spice surfaces. The palate delivers a harmonious mix of berries and gentle tannins.
Charming red berry fruits with a dash of spice and soft tannins. Like most Australians, we love a drop of pinot noir and this drop by the Zilzie wines clan is a great example of how lighter in alcohol does not mean lighter in flavour. Fragrant spice, cherry and strawberry, with subtle undertones of sweet oak dominate the nose, with full juicy cherry, rhubarb and spice flavours hitting the palate with oomph. A great drop to take to BYO Korean BBQ. • Only 9.5% Alcohol. • Only 89 Calories Per 150mL Serve.
