Château Montaiguillon Montagne-Saint-Émilion

A well regarded 28ha property on the borders of St Georges-St Emilion owned by the Amart family since 1949, which it is looking out over her neighbours like Cheval Blanc, Vieux Chateau Certan and Chateau Petrus who are just over the Barbanne stream. Tasted against far greater names this is a exceptional value, very elegant, with a lovely weight of fruit. It will not disappoint.

NOSE
This 2019 is a very pretty, understated wine with lovely floral and savory character to play off the dark red fruit, cedar, leather and tobacco flavors.

PALATE
The palate is medium-bodied, fleshy and generous, with a delicious supple red fruit character of cherries, blackcurrants and plums backed up by good structure and ripe tannins. A fine Montagne Saint-Émilion.

AGEING
Aged in oak barrels for 2 years.

PAIRING
This Saint-Émilion will go really well with appetizers, red meats, Moroccan lamb stew, cheeses, red fruits and chocolate.
