Chateau Les Grands Chenes 2018 Medoc Bordeaux France
Château Les Grands Chênes 2018 Médoc Bordeaux France
93 Points James Suckling
Owned by renowned Bordeaux vintner Bernard Magrez and crafted with the guidance of acclaimed consultant Michel Rolland, Château Les Grands Chênes 2018 is a beautifully expressive Médoc from an outstanding Bordeaux vintage. A blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, it opens with aromas of ripe blackberry, blackcurrant, cassis, boysenberry, cloves, damp earth, pencil shavings, and crushed stone. The medium- to full-bodied palate is packed with vibrant dark fruit, sleek fine-grained tannins, lively freshness, and a long, refined finish accented by spice, walnut, and a distinctive herbal lift. A classic Left Bank Bordeaux that combines richness, precision, and exceptional value.
