The refinement and smoothness of a Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux red wine
The estate
The Château d’Aiguilhe is today one of the most beautiful vineyards of the Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux appellation on the right bank of Bordeaux. This region, marked by the Hundred Years War, did not fail to assign a military role to this former fortified agricultural estate from the 13th century. Today entirely dedicated to viticulture, the estate has belonged to the Comtes Von Neipperg vineyards since 1998.
The vineyard
The Château d’Aiguilhe 2023 is a Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux wine from a 90-hectare vineyard located in the heart of the appellation. The vineyard is exclusively located on clay-limestone and clay-loamy plateaus.
Vinification and ageing
Vinification in wooden and concrete vats. Extraction by pneumatic punching down. Maceration for 32 days. The ageing on fine lees is carried out 75% in barrels (of which 20% are new) and 25% in wooden and concrete vats.
Blend
This Château d’Aiguilhe 2023 is a blend of Merlot (90%) and Cabernet Franc (10%).
