Château Citran is a solid, classically styled Haut-Médoc red built on Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, offering blackcurrant and plum fruit layered with cedar, tobacco and a touch of graphite minerality. It's medium-to-full bodied with firm but approachable tannins, made for pairing with hearty red meats rather than sipping alone. A reliable, well-priced Bordeaux with a traditional profile rather than a flashy one.
