Merchant's description

Château Grand Mayne 1985 is a fully mature, medium-bodied Merlot-based red wine from the St-Emilion appellation of Bordeaux. Château Grand Mayne is a Right Bank wine producer situated at the heart of the Saint-Émilion appellation. The château has changed hands several times in the past, but it has been owned by the Nony family since 1934. "The 1985 has very good colour, a moderately intense bouquet of spicy oak and ripe fruit, medium body, well-focused, expansive flavours, and an overall elegant feel to it." Robert Parker, 1998
