A typical varietal aroma of lemon balm and tangerine peel. Fresh, clear and very balanced on the palate. Very animating thanks to a beautiful combination of minerality, lively acidity, fine perlage and sweet fruitiness.
I went out of my way last year to visit this beautiful property located right in the heart of the Entre-Deux-Mers between the Garonne and the Dordogne, not far from Saint-Émilion. A very beautiful terroir, and their Merlot based red is easy-drinking yet has some very fine complexity. WSJ columnist Lettie Teague wrote up the Chateau after we sent her a bottle to try for one of her columns. Perfect burger on the grill wine! -Phil
