Château la Croix Chantecaille Saint-Émilion Grand Cru

A Saint-Émilion Grand Cru from Château la Croix Chantecaille. It shows a deep ruby colour, with ripe black fruit and dark cherry, earthy nuances and gentle sweet spice. The palate is compact but not heavy, with smooth tannins and freshness, plus a light note of toast and vanilla. In the mouth the progression is harmonious, with good concentration and a pleasant persistence recalling hazelnut and bitter cocoa. It suits roast red meats, mushroom dishes and aged cheeses, and can be enjoyed now or kept for a few years.
