Château Coufran 2010

[The high percentage of Merlot used by Château Coufran has seen the property dubbed the ‘Pomerol of the Médoc.’ A great opportunity to enjoy mature Bordeaux from a sophisticated, long-lived vintage.] 85% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. Lovely black liquorice and spice notes. Really fragrant and fresh. The style of St-Émilion without the heaviness. Drink [till] 2026. Score – 16.5+ (out of 20).
