Chateau Le Vivier 2008
Medoc - Appellation Medoc Controlee
A gently fruity wine that I enjoyed over a long evening, drinking first with food, and only then on its own. I decanted the wine for a good period then managed to not sip the wine until I had eaten some food. Cabernet Sauvignon is a grape I struggle with and waiting to enjoy the wine with the food helps to soften it on my palate.
This wine was bottled for Majestic and was sensible value for an excellent Medoc wine.

From the label:
Our Merlot (50%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (50%) vines gently slope down towards the Gironde river from the highest plateau in the Medoc, producing award-winning, elegant, fruit forward wines.
Chateau Le Vivier is aged in our magnificent underground cathedral, and we are delighted to release this perfectly matured 2008 vintage exclusively to Majestic's passionate wine lovers.
When you open a bottle, we suggest that you let it breathe for a little while, and serve at 16-18C.
We hope that you enjoy every drop, most probably during a long lunch or a delicious dinner with close friends.
Mis en bouteille au chateau.
