Chateau des Gravieres 2019 Bordeaux Rouge

This is the latest vintage of a favorite red Bordeaux in The Wine Country.  A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon grown in Entre-Deux-Mers, and coming in at just 12.5% alcohol, it is an ideal weekday red that offers a lot more than its price suggests.  The no-oak red sports an appealing aroma and an attractive flavor with obviously well-tended fruit in there.  Medium-to-full bodied, there are flavors of earth and a hint of licorice.
