Chateau Lamothe de Haux 'Cuvee Traditionelle' - Red Blend

This 2019 red blend hails from Bordeaux, France. Composed of 60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Cabernet Franc, it comes from a gorgeous Bordeaux estate with a rich history dating back to the 16th century. The domaine has been in the same family for 4 generations. They've adopted sustainable farming to protect the 80 - hectare historic property, from the castle to the limestone - rich underground cellars. This red wine blend is extremely approachable and easy to drink. It offers notes of blackberry and spice, making it perfect to enjoy right now with grilled red meats and hard cheeses. Or, you can cellar it for up to 5 years to savor later.

To enjoy this red wine blend, simply open the bottle and let it breathe for about 30 minutes before pouring. This will enhance its flavor. You can pair it with grilled red meats like steak or lamb, or with hard cheeses such as cheddar or gouda. When storing, keep the bottle in a cool, dark place. Avoid direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes. If you decide to cellar it, make sure the storage area has a stable temperature between 55 - 65°F (12 - 18°C). Don't shake the bottle too much as it might disrupt the sediment. Cheers!
