Chateau Les Tourelles Bordeaux Rouge
Type: Red Wine
Grape(s): 80% Merlot & 20% Cabernet Sauvignon
Wine Region: Bordeaux, France
Tasting Notes: Enticing aromas of fresh red fruits, such as cherry and raspberry with a strawberry jam note. The wine is aged for 12 months in stainless steel meaning those juicy primary characters are preserved with a nice fresh acidity. Onto the palate, more darker fruits emerge like blackberry and blueberry. A easy-drinking youthful style of Bordeaux.
Bought in 1938 by Jean Darriet, 6th generation of winemakers, This 10.5 ha estate is on the Bordeaux - Toscane Countryside. Called as a Toscane, the countryside is very hilly.
Based on nice slopes, the Red variety has been planted around the castle on good gravel terroir and natural drainage. This wine, coming from an exceptional terroir, is showing all his ageing potential.
Suggested food and wine pairing: Pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or a hearty beef stew.
