Château des Arnauds - Cuvée des Capucins 2010

Lalande-de-Pomerol|Red wine

3.3/5 (6 customers)

Here is a fine example of the Lalande-de-Pomerol appellation—fruity and slightly oaky, with a very pleasant toasty note. The palate is silky and delicate, well-balanced with lovely hints of red fruit, and finishes elegantly with a fruity character. Pair it with Bordeaux-style cep mushrooms, or a nice cut of red meat...
