Château Destieux
Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend
St. Émilion, Libournais, Bordeaux, France
Vacations that involve both cycling and wine are the absolute best. Already thinking of where to go in 2023.
Last night my neighbors shared this gem that they brought back from a recent Bordeaux wine and bike holiday. (Note to self to spend more time with the fun neighbors 😁).
The 2014 Château Destieux was super approachable after a short decant. Very ripe concentrated fruit, but not in a bad way. Complex with soft tannins. 14.5% ABV. Really a lovely bottle.
Rule #64 Remember to bring back a bottle (or bottles) while traveling. The subsequent stories about the adventure will pair perfectly with that wine.

Has sophisticated structure with dominating vanilla note and ripe red fruit taste. Elegant layers of flavors splashed on the tongue, stating its nobel origin.
