Chateau La Gorce
About the Wine
The beautiful 1821 chartreuse of Château la Gorce lies around 7 kilometers north of Saint-Estèphe. The thirty-seven hectares of vines stretch around the property and cellars, and are in impeccable condition. A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc, Henri Fabre uses 20% new oak each year, and produces a wine that always displays juicy fruit and rich color. The wine is powerful, concentrated and amply endowed with fruit, in keeping with the modern style of Bordeaux.
Tasting Notes
Deep and intense, dark ruby color, brilliant and clean. Generous and ample aromas with a hint of red fruits and spices, finishing on a discreetly wooden note.
Pairing Recommendation
Perfect pairing with ribs or braised beef, roast or grilled lamb, juicy hamburger, and even with Italian food like lasagna or bolognese sauce.
