With a roundness to the tannins, and freshness to the red red fruits, this should drink well early, yet, develop more complexities as this medium bodied wine ages. 4,451 Views Tasted Feb 4, 2017This is not a wine I taste often but I was truly impressed with this vintage, as the recent change in ownership/management has clearly made a difference. Round textures, ripeness in the fruit and a kiss of oak, this elegant wine finishes on a note of dewy, lusciously ripe berries. 88-90 Pts 3,624 Views Tasted Apr 22, 2015 |
When to Drink Chateau Dauzac, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Chateau Dauzac can be enjoyed on the young side with decanting. Young vintages can be decanted for an average of 1-2 hours, give or take. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment.
Chateau Dauzac is usually better with at least 7-9 years of bottle age. Of course, that can vary slightly, depending on the vintage character. Dauzac offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 10-18 years of age after the vintage.
