Loudenne Le Chateau 2009 75cl

Tasting Note: A lovely aroma of black fruit, chocolate raisins and dark toast. A lovely, full bodied wine, spice and then more of the plummy and cherry flavours. Silky and sexy! Decanter: 91pts, Neal Martin: 90pts

Producer: Now owned by a combination of Moutai, a Chinese spirits group, and the Camus family, Loudenne used to be owned by the Gilbey family for 125 years. Known as 'the pink Chateau', Loudenne is now in safe hands for the future, and the wines are exemplary as always.
