Subtle hints of violet, tobacco leaf and cocoa nib.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalate - Medium‑bodied, fresh and beautifully balanced. The fruit is cool‑toned and precise — cassis, plum skin, redcurrant — wrapped in fine, linear tannins. The hallmark Pessac savouriness comes through with graphite, pencil shavings and a touch of earthy spice. Oak is polished and discreet. Elegant, refined and mineral‑driven. Bright acidity, moderate alcohol and a clean, architectural frame. This is a vintage that favours finesse over power, and La Garde handles it superbly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish - Long, stony and persistent, with lingering cassis, cedar and a whisper of smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA beautifully classical Pessac‑Léognan from a cooler vintage. Fresh, mineral and cassis‑led, with fine tannins and a refined smoky‑graphite edge. Stylish, food‑friendly claret with real Left Bank poise.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"M\u0026M Personal Vintners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51941346017601,"sku":null,"price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/3736\/5313\/files\/2021-chteau-la-garde-pessaclognan.jpg?v=1783431085","url":"https:\/\/www.mikeoldfieldwines.co.uk\/products\/2021-chteau-la-garde-pessaclognan","provider":"M\u0026M Personal Vintners","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
