Chateau Andron-Blanquet Saint-Estephe 2016
92 Points - Jane Anson - Inside Bordeaux. The Chateau Andron-Blanquet Saint-Estephe 2016 is a must-buy for any Bordeaux wine lover. With a host of major awards to its name, this brilliant estate offers exceptional value for money, particularly in fine vintages such as 2016. A classic blend of Cabernet, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, it offers a seductively soft and fruity nose that's bordered by tones of smoke, peppers and violets. Rich, ripe, and mouth-filling, the palate is full of black fruits with subtle tones of tobacco, clay minerals and mint to the finish.Â

92 Points - Jane Anson - Inside Bordeaux (2016 Vintage)
About the Producer
A solid over performer from Saint-EstĂšphe, ChĂąteau Andron-Blanquet sits just next to Calon-SĂ©gur and shares the same gravelly terroir that gives the appellation its trademark grip and ageing potential. Traditionally Cabernet-led, the wines here are classic in style â structured, dark-fruited, and built to go the distance. But theyâre also surprisingly approachable in youth, with well-judged oak and a real sense of polish. For Bordeaux drinkers who appreciate value without compromise, Andron-Blanquet is well worth a look.
