Product Description
Château Peyre-Lebade wines feature the fruity and fleshy characteristics specific to the Haut-Médoc appellation. They are nonetheless distinguished by the high Merlot content, which makes them particularly supple.
Profile

Merlot 65 to 75%, Cabernet Sauvignon 15 to 25% and Cabernet Franc 10%.

Colour
Beautiful crimson colour, tinged with dark purple.
Aroma
Very fresh notes of red fruit (plums, blackcurrants and cherries), with a floral nuance of violets, and a delicately woody hint of caramel, vanilla and liquorice.
Palate
