Description

Esprit de Parenchère Bordeaux Supérieur Rouge is a highly concentrated, yet very elegant wine. It is powerful but with finesse and offers exceptionally long ageing potential.

Esprit de Parenchère is the Château’s exceptional cuvée, embodying the quintessence of Chateau’s terroir.

It is produced from the two best plots of the estate with extremely low yields.

The blend is composed predominantly of Cabernet Sauvignon; grape which gives the most structure and an excellent aptitude for ageing.

 

Grape varieties:

• Cabernet Sauvignon (majority) – offers structure and tannic density
• Merlot – offers suppleness, fruitiness, and roundness

 

Ageing:

It is aged in French oak barrels exclusively for 12 months on fine lees, without racking and micro-oxygenation.

 

Ideal drinking period:

It is ideal after eight to fifteen years (can be kept longer in adequate conditions).

 

Pairing:

The Esprit de Parenchère Bordeaux Supérieur Rouge is ideal with game, beef, and poultry.
