Description

Seeking a refined Bordeaux experience? The 2022 Château d'Aiguilhe presents an excellent opportunity. This Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux offers a sophisticated profile and is an ideal acquisition for any wine enthusiast.

The palate is both sweet and tart on entry, showcasing fine tannins and moderate depth. It culminates in a nicely balanced finish, leaving a lasting impression.

This exquisite wine is crafted from a 90-hectare vineyard situated in the heart of the appellation. The vines thrive exclusively on rich clay-limestone and clay-silt soils, contributing to the wine's unique character.

Fermentation takes place in a combination of wooden and concrete vats, with extraction achieved through pneumatic punching down. The wine undergoes a 32-day vatting period, followed by aging on fine lees in barrels, 30% of which are new, further enhancing its complexity and refinement.

Serving recommendations

Serve at 16-18 °C with beef stews with vegetables/mushrooms, veal dishes.
