Château FontesteauEstimated delivery between Dec 30, and Jan 1,
Cuvée Variation is made from the same juices as the Château's grand vin. Only the blend changes, offering a wine with a completely different character.
"Pleasant to look at with its deep ruby color, this cuvée is also pleasant to smell, with its lovely bouquet initially dominated by barrel vanilla, then opening out onto red fruits and spices. The same aromas are found on the expressive, long, round palate, built on silky tannins and prolonged by a pretty, fruity finish".
