Bursting from the acclaimed Saint-Emilion region, the Chateau LaForge Grand Cru 2016 is a meticulously crafted Bordeaux that has certainly earned its 93-point rating. Its terroir shines through in the rich, velvety layers of ripe blackcurrant, plum, and subtle tobacco notes. This vintage’s well-structured tannins and balanced acidity promise a wine that can stand up to the most robust dishes. Imagine savoring this beauty alongside a hearty beef bourguignon on a cozy winter evening. While it’s a compelling experience straight from the bottle, it also shows promising potential for cellaring. Originally retailing at $75, this wine truly delivers well beyond its peers, making it a savvy choice for discerning enthusiasts.
