More information
Château Constant Lesquireau is located in the commune of Vertheuil in the Haut-Médoc. That's between Pauillac and Lesparre-Médoc, on the same terroir as many prestigious classified growths. Since 2012, Château Constant Lesquireau has been run by Eddy Larme. Eddy prides himself on producing expressive, high quality Haut-Médoc wines, with distinguished Cabernet richness. You'll find all that in this dinner party piece magnum. It’s from a year that critics consider to be truly noteworthy: "a vintage of great potential, with outstanding reds" (jancisrobinson.com ), "exceptional" said James Suckling. The result is a red with complexity, freshness and dense chewy fruit. Best to decant early to to open out. A top choice with roast beef or duck.
