Tasting notes
The 2014 Château Maison Blanche felt a little reduced on the nose, a metallic scent infusing the red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with bold and chewy tannin. There are some attractive raspberry coulis and wild strawberry notes here, the acidity well judged, and all it really needs to muster is more finesse and precision on the finish. This is a Cru Bourgeois I can image just glugging back without too much thought. Tasted September 2016.

77% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc. Aged 12 months in tank and barrel. Rich violet scent. Blackcurrant and plum fruit with a slightly charred edge. Soft tannin and a refreshing blast of acidity to finish. (RH)
