Château Lamothe Bergeron 2011

Beautifully mature Bordeaux, drinking at the peak of perfection
Château Lamothe-Bergeron lies in the heart of Bordeaux’s Haut-Médoc, just south of the hallowed vineyards of Saint-Julien. Blessed with almost identical terroir, Lamothe-Bergeron offers Classed Growth quality for a fraction of the price.
Bordeaux insiders have long sought out the wines of Château Lamothe-Bergeron, as this Cru Bourgeois estate consistently offers unrivalled quality and value. That’s because the vineyards are nestled between the famous names of Saint-Julien and Margaux, and the winemaking is overseen by Hubert de Boüard of Saint-Émilion’s prestigious Château Angélus. The 2011 has been cellared in perfect conditions at the château and is now drinking at its absolute peak. The epitome of aged Médoc, it marries forest fruit, tobacco and spicy complexity with a savoury oak finish. “Prune, cigar-box and earthy flavours feature in an excellent example of mature Bordeaux” Decanter Magazine.
