Features |
This exceptional chateau is run by the renowned wine entrepreneur Bernard Magrez. Its distinctive features include utilizing the exceptional terroir of Saint-Émilion while combining cutting-edge technology with strict quality control. Grapes are hand-selected and vinified in oak barrels, with a high proportion of new oak, resulting in rich fruit flavors and silky tannins. Compared to other wineries, the estate offers luxurious Bordeaux wines that stand out for their concentration and refined style. The 2000 vintage is a fascinating wine that reflects the excellent climatic conditions of this vintage. 2000 was considered a great year throughout Bordeaux, with ideal weather from flowering through to harvest. As a result, the fruit was fully ripe, resulting in a finish that combines concentration and elegance. It features complex aromas of black fruits, spices, and truffles, and the palate is impressive with powerful yet silky tannins. This is a masterpiece that embodies Magrez's commitment to quality and can withstand long-term aging. |
