drink-now2011 Dourthe Ch. Rahoul Rouge, Graves

Pronounced ruby-red in appearance. Ripe bouquet where red fruit notes intermingle with vanilla, oaky aromas. Direct and fresh on the attack, underpinned by fine tannins. The wine develops good concentration and rounded character on the palate. A wine of great finesse, supported on the finish by subtle, well- integrated oaky character.
