Cantemerle 2000

750 ml Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot Bordeaux, France 2000

Cantemerle 2000 is a dry, very full-bodied red from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot (Médoc, France), in the full, structured reds style. Tannins are firm and acidity fresh; oak influence is noticeable. Those scales describe the wine when young; this is a 26-year-old bottle and its tannin and oak will have softened. Good with steak, lamb, roast chicken, roast pork.
