Domaine de L'Ile Margaux Bordeaux des iles Red 2012
This 2012 Bordeaux des Îles is a red wine from the exceptional Domaine de L'Île Margaux, one of the very few island vineyards in Bordeaux. Made from a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and old Malbec vines, it offers a nose of ripe black fruit with spicy notes and notes of evolution, leather, blond tobacco and undergrowth. On the palate, the substance is elegant with fine tannins and the finish remains fresh.
A ten-year-old Bordeaux Supérieur that surprises with its outfit, a great gift idea to celebrate a significant event of 2012 to be found in a gift box.
The 2012 vintage is the first year of the estate's conversion to organic farming. The estate has been operated since 2001 in a protected natural environment with great attention to biodiversity and has been certified organic since the 2015 vintage.
