Château Chauvin Saint-Émilion Grand Cru 2016

Tasting Notes:

• Appearance: Deep, dark garnet color, almost opaque, with vibrant purple tinges around the rim.
• Nose: Aromas of blackberries, black currants, and ripe cherries dominate, with subtle layers of cedar, vanilla, and spices from aging in oak barrels. Hints of tobacco, mocha, and wet earth add complexity.
• Palate: The wine has a lush, full-bodied mouthfeel with a supple texture. It displays ripe, concentrated black fruit flavors, with firm, well-integrated tannins. There are secondary notes of licorice, dark chocolate, and a touch of graphite, leading to a long, satisfying finish.

Food Pairing: Ideal with classic dishes such as grilled lamb, roast beef, or game. It also pairs well with hard cheeses like aged Comté or Parmesan.
