Those who want to experience the genuine taste of Bordeaux should visit the Château Saint-Hilaire winery. Well, at least at a distance.
The local winemakers grow grapes of the Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon varieties on their sunny vineyards. They taste them gradually, and when their time has arrived, they pick them by hand.
After the wine has matured for 12 months in oak casks the winemakers seek a precise ratio of the two varieties used to create the rich and elegant taste of Médoc. In 2016 it was 55 % Cabernet and 45 % Merlot. This is how the red wine with a full, fruity taste and with superb potential for maturation was created.
The Médoc 2016 was even successful at the world’s largest competition, the Decanter World Wine Awards. It was awarded 92 out of 100 points.
The winemakers from Château Saint-Hilaire gave this wine an exceptional rating of 9/10 points. Only 3 vintages have been given this rating in the past 20 years.
Try it for yourself. Treat yourself to the refined taste of Bordeaux.
