The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Enjoying beautiful gravelly hilltops and a clay plateau in the Martillac area, Château La Garde benefits from the same assets as its prestigious neighbors Smith-Haut-Lafitte or Latour-Martillac. This estate produces wines of comparable density and fullness and is now acquiring an equal level of quality. This property represents without a doubt one of the best quality-price ratios in the sector, producing balanced wines full of energy and finesse.
Wine Remarkable, the Château La Garde 2015 unfolds intense aromas of fruit, fresh leather, violets and cocoa. In this complex and generous vintage, the wine unfolds a powerful palate, with solid but coated tannins, a nice persistence and a good balance . A great and stylish pessac that is both generous and balanced! Enjoy !
Vinification Hand harvested, long maceration, aged on fine lees in oak barrels of which 34% are new.
