France / Bordeaux / Pomerol Rouge

 

2013 Château Rouget has an intense ruby red colour with purple reflections. Elegant black fruit notes with exquisite and spicy and truffle touch. Beautifully delicate, with subtle flavours of black fruit and plums that embrace the palate while keeping pleasant freshness on the finish. Ageing Potential: More than 20 years. We recommend to wait for 10 to 12 years for this wine to express itself. This vintage was bottled on a fruit day according to the lunar calendar, to allow the wine to express itself fully.
 

Blend:
85% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc.

 

Ratings vintage 2013:

  • Le Guide Hachette des Vins: 1 Star.

 

Gravelous soils mixed with clay. This soil composition, combined with an exceptional exposure, confers all the typicity, elegance and finesse to Château Rouget wines. Vineyards are sustainably farmed, using practices such as cover crops and ploughing.

Grapes are vinified batch by batch, in oak or stainless steel vats, then aged for 18 months in oak barrels (33% new). The wine is fined traditionally, using fresh egg white.
 

The estate is considered as being one of the first official Pomerol Crus. Indeed, it originally appeared in the archives and land register of 1700, corresponding to the construction of the estate's grand château by the Bayonne family. At the close of the 19th Century, Château Rouget was rated among the top five Pomerol estates in a classification of the appellation's wines. In 1992, the estate was purchased by the Labruyère family, who today manage the estate in consultation with renowned winemaker, Michel Rolland.
