Haut Bages Monpelou 2010 is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Merlot from the Haut-Médoc region. The wine presents a nose of redcurrant, ripe plum and subtle earthy notes. On the palate, it showcases medium body with a notable structure, alongside refined tannins that provide a solid framework. Flavours of black cherry and herbal complexity emerge gradually, along with a hint of graphite.
