Château Dutruch Grand Poujeaux (2016) – If the woodiness of French oak is essential for precision and tannic structure, it is essential for us that it only supports the expression of the wine and not the other way around. In its youth, Château Dutruch Grand Poujeaux presents aromas of fresh and crisp red and black fruits, with subtle toasted and roasted notes. The palate is smooth, fresh and precise. The tannins, present but well integrated, are very persistent. With age, the aroma evolves towards truffle, animal and menthol notes. We advise you to wait at least 3 to 5 years, but the aging potential can be impressive depending on the vintage.
