Château Le Bruilleau 2008

Pessac-Léognan|Red wine

Note: Guide Hachette 1* (A very successful wine)
 “The 2008, with its intense ruby color, reveals a bouquet that is still closed, with hints of roasted and smoky notes. The palate is round and velvety, supported by silky tannins.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2012)
