Ch. Les Grands Chênes, 2008, Bordeaux
AED 100
18 in stock
This is a name that frugal consumers should remember as the consistently well-made Les Grands Chenes is part of the Bernard Magrez empire, which is synonymous with exceptionally high quality across the board. A blend of 55% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Cabernet Franc that was harvested between October 8-24, the 2008’s deep ruby/purple color is followed by sweet notes of currants, blackberries, new saddle leather, charcoal, and smoke. It is a fresh, medium to full-bodied, seriously endowed, charming, elegant Medoc to consume during its first decade of life. -182, The Wine Advocate

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

This amazing powerhouse from Ribera del Duero. Tinto Pesquera Reserva 2012 - Bodegas Alejandro Fernández. Decanting is advised 👌🍷 delicious cherry, vanilla, leather and cederbox with cigars. Milk chocolat, forrest floor, laurel. Great lenght and depth Amazing wine!

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
