Château du Raux 2016 from the Haut-Médoc is our latest, gorgeous, mature claret from this wonderful vintage. It is drinking beautifully now and will be for a good few years to come.

The Château is close to Saint-Julien with exactly the same, largely pebble terroir, such that the wine could well be mistaken as being from that appellation. In fact, so much so that Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, having tasted their 2016, bought a small parcel of their vineyard. It was that good!

How does the wine taste? Customer Reviews (0)
This is right in the sweet spot for drinking: at first, ripe blackcurrant and an appealing fruit coulis perfume on the nose with a swirl of the glass coaxing more mature and secondary aromas to emerge sweet, smoky spice and a note of cedar, perhaps. Classically claret, and quite Saint-Julien in style. On the palate, luscious texture, and fine balance. Pure, fresh cassis fruit, with nice richness and a sophisticated, polished feel to it. Nearly ten years of maturity gives this layers and layers of flavour. Some good winemaking at work here. Equal parts cabernet and merlot.
