Château Port du Roy

AOC Bordeaux Supérieur Red

Tasting

A charming deep red colour. The fruity nose reveals surprising spicy and roasted aromas. This wine is elegant and strong with a velvety substance. The tannins are perfectly melted, but will evolve over the years.

Food Pairing

Serve with roasted red meats and games with sauce. Excellent with cheese.
