Scev Vignobles Chatonnet Château Haut-Chaigneau Red 2016 Lalande-de-Pomerol
Description
Viticulture
Viticulture raisonnée - Drastic reduction in the use of phytosanitary treatment products in the vineyard.
Vinification
In stainless steel tanks. Each plot is vinified separately using the most modern techniques, but in the pure Bordeaux tradition.
Wine aging
12 months in barrels (25% new, 65% used for a previous vintage and 10% for two previous vintages) in an underground cellar specially designed for aging.
Vintage details
Extravagant like the sun which reigned almost without sharing over the vines during the three months of summer. Extravagant like a vintage that already promises to be surprising and quite simply exceptional.
Tasting notes
The wines obtained at Haut-Chaigneau are generously coloured, concentrated, straight with fat tannins and juicy fruit. Black cherry and blueberry are harmoniously blended. The acidity despite the summer heat has been preserved; the finish is mineral and refreshing. The great vintage at Haut-Chaigneau is well confirmed in 2016!
