Grape Varieties:
50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc and 10% Malbec
Located on the famous western plateau of Saint-Emilion and is just a few hundred metres from the town.

Average age of vines: 40-50 years

Is vinified in cement vats and stainless-steel tanks before being aged in oak. Vieux Clos Saint-Emilion is a charming, fruity wine for relatively early drinking and can be approached between three and ten years after the vintage.

Tasting Notes: Deep shiny cherry to purple colour. Seductive bouquet of sweet cherries, plums, dark berries, highlighted with earthy notes, very elegant with delicate aromas of new oak. The palate is smooth and full-bodied, with well matured, but felt powerful tannins, structure, juicy fruit and good acidity, harmonious round and balanced, with a long, slightly spicy aftertaste of red fruits, earthy notes and fine toast a beautiful Château Vieux Clos.

THE GRAPE

 

Cab.Sauvignon Blend

Cabernet Sauvignon lends itself particularly well in blends with Merlot. This is actually the archetypal Bordeaux blend, though in different proportions in the sub-regions and sometimes topped up with Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot.

In the Médoc and Graves the percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend can range from 95% to as low as 40%. It is particularly suited to the dry, warm, free- draining, gravel-rich soils and is responsible for the redolent cassis characteristics as well as the depth of colour, tannic structure and pronounced acidity of Médoc wines. However 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wines can be slightly hollow-tasting in the middle palate and Merlot with its generous, fleshy fruit flavours acts as a perfect foil by filling in this cavity.

In St-Emilion and Pomerol, the blends are Merlot dominated as Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to ripen there - when it is included, it adds structure and body to the wine. Sassicaia is the most famous Bordeaux blend in Italy and has spawned many imitations, whereby the blend is now firmly established in the New World and particularly in California and Australia.
