title: Château Manon la Lagune 2012  Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux
description: A year's barrel aging has given this firm and very rich wine a spicy character. That marries with the licorice and bitter chocolate to give a ripe, extracted and dense wine. It needs a few years to bring out more of the juicy plum fruitiness. Drink from 2017.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
