Freshness and suppleness

THE VINTAGE

2013 is a year marked by mild temperatures and summer rains. This semi-tropical climate led us to bring forward the date of the harvest and to adapt the vinification process: a drastic selection of the berries and a gentle extraction of the tannins enabled us to produce a supple wine with a beautiful aromatic freshness.

THE TASTING

The wine is well balanced. It offers a supple tannic structure, aromas of red fruits (raspberry, blackcurrant, blackberry), woody notes (clove, cocoa bean, smoked) and minerality.

 

« Very floral, lilac, peony and rose petals, the nose expresses delicacy. On the palate, the wine is elegant and rests on a beautiful tannic structure without opulence. »

GAULT & MILLAU : 15,5/20

For a good tasting, we recommend decanting the wine or opening the bottle 4 hours before the meal, and serving it « chambré », i.e. between 18 and 19° C.

Château Taillefer 2013 will go well with white meat or firm-fleshed fish such as monkfish or Saint Pierre. It can also be enjoyed simply as an aperitif with plancha.
