Jean-Pierre and Paulette Lobre established Chateau de L'Aubrade in 1974 to expand the family viticultural legacy in southeast Bordeaux. Their 2018 Merlot-based blend flaunts the concentrated dark fruit, ripe tannin, and round structure emblematic of hot, dry conditions throughout summer and autumn. This flavorful French red wine drinks well above its modest price!

Ripe and perfumed, this is still a young wine. With its tannins dominating the blackberry fruit flavors, it needs some time to show at its best. The potential is there in this fine wine, so drink from 2021.
