Product features : Chateau Dalem 2017 — Fronsac
Breeding
Two-thirds in new oak barrels and one-third in one-year-old barrels
On the eye
Deep ruby with purple reflections, indicating youth and good concentration of fruit.
On the nose
Expressive bouquet revealing cassis and blackberry, with secondary notes of liquorice, forest floor and tobacco leaf. The aromatics suggest good cellaring potential.
In the mouth
Velvety texture with ripe dark fruit flavours—plum and blackcurrant—complemented by subtle chocolate and spice notes. The finish is long and clean, with well-integrated tannins and pleasing freshness that suggests the wine will develop further over the coming years.
An excellent companion to grilled lamb cutlets with herbs, or a good quality beef steak. The wine's structure and tannin profile also suit rich game dishes and mature cheeses. Drink now or cellar for five to eight years for additional complexity.

CHATEAU DALEM
Château Dalem spans 40 hectares on the clay-limestone coteaux of Saillans, in the Gironde, within the Fronsac appellation. Founded in 1610, the vineyard remained in the same family for three centuries before Michel Rullier acquired it in 1955. His daughter Brigitte Rullier-Loussert — named Winemaker of the Year by the Guide Hachette 2019 — has since transformed the estate, expanding it from 15 to 40 hectares. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this château for the consistency of its Fronsac reds, the honest expression of its terroir, and the rigorous vision Brigitte brings to every vintage. A Fronsac address that deserves the full attention of lovers of characterful Bordeaux.
