Bordeaux Red Blends from St. Emilion, Bordeaux, France

Winemaker Notes

Deep garnet in colour, the 2016 vintage reveals powerful, complex notes of violets and dark fruits, together with hint of spice. After the initial attack, the wine gradually gains in intensity on the palate, underpinned by its very fine-grained and silky tannic structure. The fleshy character, fruit and concentration, all in perfect harmony, bring great potential to the Grand Barrail Lamarzelle Figeac.

Wine Enthusiast – 91 Points

Vineyards in the west of Saint-Émilion have produced this well-structured, balanced wine. Although still young, the rich tannins and blackberry flavors have great promise. It shows good equilibrium between fruit and dense structure and needs more time. Drink from 2025.

Food Pairing 

Pairs well with grilled red meat, poultry in sauce, cheeses, and red-fruit desserts.
