Product features : Chateau Villemaurine - Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé 2016
In the mouth
The palate is precise and elegant, with well-integrated tannins and a measured acidity that provides freshness. The finish is clean and persistent.
On the nose
Red and dark berry fruits predominate, complemented by delicate floral notes and subtle spice from oak maturation. The aromatics are refined and layered.
On the eye
Deep garnet, with luminous edges
Breeding
Aged in barrels for approximately 15 months
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted quail accompanied by seasonal vegetables. The wine's structure and spice notes complement game birds particularly well, whilst its acidity refreshes the palate between courses. Consider decanting thirty minutes before service to allow the wine to open fully.
