Elle de La Marzelle is a delicious red wine from the vineyards of Château La Marzelle. This wine is made from 80% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine comes essentially from young plants.
La Marzelle is a beautiful cherry-red colour, with a fruity nose reminiscent of blackberries. It is smooth and delicate, and should be drunk young, chilled (16°), within two years.
