CHATEAU DURANDAL GRAND CRU 2008, 750ml (Bottle)

• It ticks all the boxes for value, drinkability and interest. Super bargain.
• Ripe blueberry/raspberry fruit with a clutch of dried herb and plenty of that dark minerality that's so attractive in the wines of Bordeaux.
• It's firm and dry, but surprisingly full and fruity (in context) with excellent density, good length and a refreshing finish. Clearly made to win friends yet does not betray its regionality and roots.
