french philosopher and writer charles-louis de montesquieu once lived at the moated château de la brède, hence the name of this wine. it is a ripe, finely perfumed wine, with new wood and eucalyptus aromas, rich red fruits and a soft, open series of tannins. it is almost ready to drink, but the chocolate edge suggests it should be kept until 2017.
