Chateau Terre Bleue 2018, Montagne St-Emilion, France

GROWER DIRECTS

Chateau Terre Bleue is a very old estate that has been handed down from generation to generation for more than two centuries. The estate is made up of a patchwork of plots of land dotted all over the medieval village of Saint-Georges-Saint-Emilion. The plots are planted to a mix of Merlot, Malbec, and Cabernets Sauvignon and Franc, with Merlot constituting more than half of the plantings. This is a fruit-forward Bordeaux with aromatic complexity, an elegant wine that is round and fleshy on the palate with ripe, silky tannins.   trade
