Ripe black plum, cherry and dark berry fruit lead the way, followed by a gentle floral lift, soft spice and a savoury mineral undertow that keeps the wine feeling fresh and composed. The palate is smooth and fruit-driven, with plenty of Merlot generosity at its heart, but there is a lovely line of poise running through it, giving the wine shape, balance and a softly earthy finish. It is generous, certainly, but never heavy, just polished, vivid and very easy to enjoy.

It is a more contemporary expression from the property, built around fruit, balance and texture rather than oak weight, and the amphora élevage gives it a slightly different rhythm from more traditional Right Bank wines. The result is a bottle that feels rooted in Bordeaux, but with a fresher, more modern ease.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55635995132289,"sku":null,"price":24.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0513\/9841\/files\/2023C315Sud-Ouest_ChateauTournefeuille.png?v=1778167155","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-republic.co.uk\/products\/2023-c315-sud-ouest-chateau-tournefeuille","provider":"Wine Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
