Château Méaume, Bordeaux Supérieur 2023
Bordeaux, France, Dry Red, Cork, 13.5% abv
(2025) From Bordeaux's Right Bank, a Merlot dominated red wine coming from a vintage that many are claiming to be a great one. The estate has been owned by the English Johnson-Hill family for almost 50 years and has seen considerable investment under current proprietors, Mark and Sandra Johnson-Hill. The nose is spicy, dark and fruit-cakey, with plum, currants and a hint of cedar. In the mouth this has fine medium weight, and that dark berry fruit is nicely smooth and ripe through the mid-palate, running into a balanced finish showing soft but supportive tannins and elegant acidity. A good choice for Christmas perhaps, drinking well already. Watch the video for more information.
