Pricing & Stock Information

Reviews and Ratings

From the Margaux in the Bordeaux wine region, Labastide Dauzac 2016 is an elegant red wine blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon and 48% Merlot from vines averaging 40 years of age. Look for mouth-filling ripe black fruit, plum, blackberry, blueberry, cinnamon and savoury herb flavours on the palate. Tannins are structured. Aged 18 months in French oak barriques, this wine is vegan-friendly. Good now, better in 2021. - Community Wine Reviews
