Château Duprat 2020

Critic James Suckling described the 2020 wines as being of "an outstanding quality level”. There's certainly no shortage of well-structured, velvety ripe fruit and depth in this appealing 2020 from an ideally situated estate in the Entre-Deux-Mers.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.

The Wine
Bordeaux has been blessed in recent years with a run of terrific vintages. Jeb Dunnock recently wrote, "Bordeaux has another terrific vintage on its hands with 2020", while Jancis Robinson MW wrote, "Tasting the 2020s was a real joy." Here, we present a charming petit château Bordeaux from a small estate, close to the Garonne, in the south of the Entre-Deux-Mers. At 100 metres altitude and planted on sand, clay and silt soils, its vines – Merlot, plus Cabernets Franc and Sauvignon – thrive and have produced this most attractive claret. Already appealing, the wine is still young, so it's best opened early and decanted. A fine, well structured and well-balanced red to serve with classic red meat dishes, a rich veggie casserole or cheese.
"Classic French Bordeaux. A proper French Merlot, very typical of the region"
