A deep ruby colour, this wine has an expressive nose, with aromas of red fruits and violets, and a hint of vanilla and toasted notes. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and fleshy, thanks to the Merlot heavy blend (90%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (10%).
There is a harmonious balance between supple tannins and richness of texture, with dark fruit flavours of plum, black currant and blackberry. The finish is long and elegant, with light notes of toast, licorice and vanilla.
From the heights of the Libournais region, the Montagne-Saint-Emilion appellation overlooks stunning landscapes of rolling hills and limestone-clay plateaus. Bordered by Pomerol to the west and Saint-Émilion to the south, it is surrounded by prestigious neighbors who share similar values and terroirs. The Montagne hillside is separated from Saint-Émilion by the Barbanne Valley, a small stream winding through the vineyards.
Château Sarenceau’s vineyard straddles both appellations, thriving on a terroir predominantly composed of limestone. This family-owned estate is now in its fourth generation of passionate winemakers. Today, Ludovic Delage brings his expertise and deep connection to the land. The estate, covering just 9 hectares, allows for meticulous vineyard management. The vines are carefully pruned, the harvest is done manually, and the maceration lasts 3 to 4 weeks. Fermentation takes place in cement vats, and the wine is aged in both barrels and cement tanks.
This wine is drinking very well, but has the capacity to age for up to 10 years.
Pair with steaks, roast meats, duck or rich cheese dishes.
