Reviews and Ratings

Christian Marcoux rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Delicious Bordeaux Superieur, Chateau La Croix de Queynac 2016 reveals aromas of cherry, raspberry, black pepper, leather, spice and cedar. Made from Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, this medium-bodied wine delivers well-dosed acidity, perfect for food pairing. Its tannins are supple, and its finish is long and fruity. Palate: tart cherry, raspberry, bay leaf, truffle, incense and cedar. Enjoy!
Château La Croix De Queynac 2016 is a supply and smooth red wine blend of 60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc. Lovely ripe plum, blueberry, cassis, cinnamon, clove and savoury herb flavours on the palate. Tannins are fine and there is food-friendly acidity for rich dishes like duck confit and roast chicken. Lovely now, better in 2022 when this Bordeaux red blend begins to show its best. - Community Wine Reviews
