Winemaker Notes
Aromas of fruit—cassis and dark plums and juicy red cherries—but also spices—coriander and cumin. Juicy easy drinking, light and approachable, well balanced. Delicious flavors of red and ample black cherries and raspberries, succulent acidity and mild tannins.
Winery Info
Chateau Saint Sulpice, Bordeaux Rouge, is a 100 acre estate situated in a village of the same name in the northern section of Entre-Deux-Mers, just south of St. Emilion. The vineyard is planted with 70% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc, and it enjoys a microclimate with an extra measure of warmth in early autumn. The winemaking is directed by owner Pierre Duberge and his son, Christophe, who take pride in producing a soft, fruity wine with a spicy aroma typical of the Merlot dominated reds of the “right bank”.
