The estate and the wine |
|
|
At Ventealapropriété, we have always liked to introduce you to vintages that have reached their peak of maturity. (Re)discover today the "2016", one of the greatest vintages of the decade!
At its inception, the 2016 vintage was already described as grandiose. A few years later, having reached a beautiful evolution, it displays a high class character, destined for long aging.
This vintage required patience and kept the suspense until the end before revealing its magnificence! A vintage of elegance and balance, with ripe tannins and fresh and dynamic textures. |

| | |
|
Opening with juicy, elegant, and deep tannins, the 2016 red Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux Château Alcée delivers a beautiful score, all freshness, and balance. It is an energetic, distinguished wine, carried by a radiant Merlot, ready for the meal, to be discovered today with a poultry or a veal chop. |
