Tasting notes
The 2017 de la Cour d’Argent, a Bordeaux Supérieur from Jean-Luc Thunévin’s stable, has an attractive blackberry and sous-bois scented bouquet with touches of mineral and tobacco coming through with aeration. The palate is medium bodied with grippy tannin, a light marine influence coming through and fine delineation towards the finish. Frankly, I prefer this to some of the more self-aggrandizing wines that I tasted on the Right Bank.

The 2017 de la Cour d'Argent is deep garnet-purple in color and scented of crushed black raspberries and red plums with touches of tree bark and roses. Medium-bodied, firm and with a good core of fruit, it finishes on an earthy note. Apr 2018, www.robertparker.com
