More information about 2018 Château la Rose Picot
Château La Rose Picot is located in Saint Germain d'Esteuil, 25 km west of Saint Estèphe. The vineyards extend over 40 hectares and are cultivated by the Goirand winemaking couple. This classic cuvée produces an intense ruby red wine with dark berry aromas and spices. The wine is very harmonious with present but soft tannins, it is elegant and fresh and has a long, fine finish.
The Médoc region is located northwest of the city of Bordeaux. This is where the River Gironde flows into the Atlantic Ocean. The vines find sufficient sunshine here. However, the maritime climate mitigates this influence. As in the rest of the Bordeaux region, most wines in the Médoc are made from a blend of different grape varieties. The red grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are particularly popular here, blended with small amounts of Cabernet Franc, Malbec or Petit Verdot.
Grape varieties by proportion: Merlot 56%, Cabernet Sauvignon 39%, Cabernet Franc 3%, Petit Verdot 2%
