What is this wine?
Château Noaillac’s Médoc 2016 is a well-crafted Left Bank Bordeaux from the northern Médoc, near the village of Jau-Dignac-et-Loirac. The estate, revitalized by the Pagès family (of Château La Tour de By), produces wines that emphasize freshness, balance, and classic Médoc character. The blend typically features Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, aged in French oak for about a year to achieve structure and polish.

Why get this wine?
The 2016 vintage was exceptional across Bordeaux, yielding wines of ripeness, precision, and longevity. Château Noaillac is a standout value in this great year—offering genuine Médoc depth, cassis-driven fruit, and refined tannins at an everyday price. It’s a true insider’s pick for those seeking classic Bordeaux character without overspending.

What does this wine taste like?
Aromas of blackcurrant, plum, and graphite mingle with notes of cedar, tobacco, and spice. The palate is medium-bodied, supple, and balanced, with fine tannins and a fresh, savory finish.

When should you drink this wine?
Ready to enjoy now but will continue to develop gracefully through 2030. Decant 30 minutes before serving. Perfect with roast meats, stews, or firm cheeses.

"The 2016 Noaillac is evolving beautifully, and consumers who purchased this wine for a pittance must be pleased. Exhibiting aromas of sweet cassis, licorice, loamy soil, mint and tobacco leaf, it's medium-bodied, supple and lively, with a succulent core of fruit, powdery tannins and a vibrant finish." —William Kelley

"This 113-acre estate has been owned for three generations by the Pagès family. Rich tannins contrast with the spicy, toasty flavor that will soften into the ripe black-currant fruits. Drink this wine from 2022." —Roger Voss
