Saint-Émilion Grand Cru – Château la Grangère 2018

layers: 80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc

Features :
This 2018 Saint-Émilion Grand Cru from Château La Grangère reveals itself in an intense garnet color with purple highlights. The nose opens with generous notes of ripe black fruits—blackberry, blackcurrant, plum—enhanced by a touch of sweet spices, cedar, and a hint of toast. On the palate, the wine displays a full and velvety texture, structured by silky tannins and a beautiful freshness that elegantly extends the overall experience. The oak aging is perfectly integrated, adding complexity without overpowering the fruit. A beautiful bottle, both accessible and ageworthy.

Food and Wine Pairings:
A perfect accompaniment to beef fillet, duck breast, porcini mushroom risotto, or mature cheeses like Saint-Nectaire or Laguiole. Serve between 16 and 18°C, after decanting if possible.

The Estate:
Château La Grangère is a small, 6.3-hectare family estate nestled on the clay-limestone hillsides of Saint-Émilion, just steps from some of the finest classified growths. Certified organic, the estate cultivates its vines with care and precision, favoring low yields to ensure excellent concentration. The vinification process is minimally interventionist, favoring indigenous yeasts, and the wines are aged in oak barrels to enhance the authenticity of the terroir. A small, private estate that deserves your full attention.
