Wine Making

Tasting Note
Sweet juicy fruit dominates this wine with plum, black cherry and raspberry. Supple and smooth with juicy tannins and a freshness on the finish.

This will go well with Charcuterie, smoked duck and chicken in red wine sauces.

Chateau Grand Village Rouge, Bordeaux Superieur

£15.00

The red is usually a blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot. There is only a very small amount of Cabernet Sauvignon planted here as the soil, as in Pomerol, is rich in clay. The blend is usually 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Merlot and aged in barriques for 12 to 1 months, with only a small proportion of new wood, never more than 20%. The result is a supple and harmonious claret with deceptive levels of concentration and definition and it generally drinks well from three to ten years after harvest. Colour: Red
