Lamothe Bergeron 2016 is a red Bordeaux from the Haut-Médoc appellation, a classic Cru Bourgeois Supérieur from a widely lauded vintage. The blend is predominantly Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from a terroir of Garonne gravel and deep clay. The 2016 vintage was noted for its ideal conditions, producing wines with freshness, elegance and concentration. This bottling presents a classic bouquet of ripe black cherry, cassis and tobacco leaf, with a hint of roasted coffee. The palate is medium-bodied and elegant, framed by fine, supple tannins and a savoury acidity that culminates in a long, fresh finish.
