The wine shows a deep red purple color and intense aromas of black fruits (blackcurrant, black cherry) with hints of liquorice. Very fruity and well-balanced. It is powerful and well structured in the mouth with round and silky tannins, ripe flavors of black fruits. Strong and a slightly spicy finish.

jeb dunnuck logo 250"Made from 100% Merlot, the 2016 Chateau des Arnauds is a medium-bodied, nicely textured, undeniably delicious red that has classic chocolaty dark fruits and tobacco aromas and flavors.
