Description
'This excellent red made from a special vineyard has been sworn to secrecy. The label is not permitted to divulge where the wine was made because the ch�teau presumably doesn't want the world rushing to buy this factory outlet-mall version at a fraction of the normal price. But let's scan the clues ... L'Expression de Margaux happens to be a brand marketed by a company called Ulysse Cazabonne, based in Margaux and owned by the luxury fashion house Chanel. Guess which famous Margaux estate Chanel also owns? Ch�teau Rauzan-S�gla, an elite 'second-growth' property on Bordeaux's Left Bank, producer of one of France's most sought-after reds.'

Tasting Notes
Aromas of red fruit, cassis, plum, oak spice and coffee. The palate offers a touch of earthiness atop the nicely framed replays. Balanced, structured and quite tannic, this will age very well or can be enjoyed tonight with steak or lamb. (VINTAGES panel, April 2015)
