Winemaker Notes
This full-bodied Bordeaux red is created from a blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc. The deep colour offers ripe, lush, sweet, dark red fruits, silky textures with a blast of licorice, dark cocoa and black cherries in the finish. Notes of black cherry liqueur, espresso, chocolate and blackberry.
This Chateau d'Aiguilhe red is best paired with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised and grilled dishes. Chateau d’Aiguilhe is also good when matched with Asian dishes, rich fish courses like tuna, mushrooms and pasta.
