Chateau Noaillac, Médoc, 2015 Bordeaux, France

About Chateau Noaillac: Château Noaillac is a Cru Bourgeois property located on the Left Bank of the Garonne river in the heart of Bordeaux’s prestigious Médoc region. Marc Pagès and his son, Xavier, acquired the property in 1983 and restored it to its original splendour – much as they had done previously with another top Médoc estate, Château Tour de By. Damien – son of Xavier – joined the team in 2004.

Description: 55% Merlot, 40% Cabernet-sauvignon, 5% Petit-verdot

Wine Critic:
88/100
“This northern Médoc estate has produced a wine that has both structure and fruit. The tannins are certainly present, giving a burnt character from the wood aging. However, black currant flavors are there as well. Put the two together as they integrate, and the wine will be juicy and attractive. Drink from 2020.” ROGER VOSS

“2015 is indeed a fantastic year, producing rich and opulent reds with ripe and velvety tannins. The wines have a lot of “wow” factor.” Matured for a year in fine oak, this rich fruit claret is drinking well now, or keep. Enjoy with roast red meats or game.James Suckling
