Scev Vignobles Chatonnet L'ARCHANGE Red 2018 Saint-Emilion

Red

Description

Viticulture

Integrated viticulture - Drastic reduction in the use of phytosanitary treatment products in the vineyard.

Vinification

In stainless steel vats. The single plot is vinified separately using the most modern techniques, but in the pure Bordeaux tradition.

Wine aging

Barrel ageing: 50% new barrels, 50% one-wine barrels.

Vintage details

At once refined, precise and taut, in a different style, 2016 joins the great vintages of Bordeaux's recent history: 2005, 2009, 2010, and 2016. With an admirable capacity to age and being able to be tasted perfectly throughout their life, the true wine lover, the aesthete, not the one who buys to speculate, will find in this vintage multiple opportunities to enjoy themselves! L'Archange 2018 is dedicated to Gabriel, archangel of the Annunciation of a great vintage.

Tasting notes

The 2018 Archangel, a pure expression of Merlot on clay, has a wonderful aroma, fleshiness, sweetness and lots of freshness despite a rather late harvest for the variety (30 September). This vintage has great balance, freshness, power and wonderful length on the palate, with plenty of elegance and finesse to balance out the power.
