Chateau Balestard La Tonnelle 2009
Deep, nearly opaque ruby colour with aromatics of ripe black fruits — blackberry, black cherry and cassis — intertwined with nuanced cedar, vanilla, mocha and graphite notes from mature oak and age. On the palate it’s medium‑ to full‑bodied with velvety yet refined tannins and balanced acidity, revealing layers of dark fruit, gentle spice, licorice and subtle earthy complexity, culminating in a long, elegant finish with plummy richness and structural finesse.
Pairs well with savory dishes such as roasted lamb with herbs, beef tenderloin and hearty mushroom‑based pastas.
