Château de Chantegrive
Graves Red Bordeaux Blend
Fruit is black and fresh, layered with licorice, tobacco, and vanilla bean. Well integrated tannins and impressive flesh and drive. Well built.

Jul 12th, 2015I liked drinking it, at least till it stopped changing. Solid wine, a little more forward than I enjoy.

Jan 14th, 2015Great entry level Boudreaux.
Needs time to unwind but when it does, dark fruit, cocoa,leather, cedar and terroir are unleashed.

Thought it was a very nice Bordeaux wine after some breathing with food and good balance of tannin and fruit. Some notes of leather, and tart

Oct 2nd, 2016Dark Ruby color. Full bodied with lots of dark bramble fruit, strong tannins and a medium long finish. Good value every day drinking Bordeaux.
