The generosity and power of a fine red wine from Haut-Medoc

The tasting

The Chateau Citran 2019 has a bright and deep color with purple reflections. On an expressive nose notes of red fruit mingle with touches of charming and intense black fruit. On the palate, this wine combines generosity and power on a harmonious structure.
