Description
Château La Commanderie 2016 is a fantastic Bordeaux wine from the Côtes de Castillon appellation, which is located just to the east of the more famous Saint-Émilion region. Côtes de Castillon wines are known for offering great value while maintaining the quality and characteristics of Bordeaux wines, and Château La Commanderie is a shining example of this. The 2016 vintage is particularly well-regarded, offering a blend of richness, balance, and complexity.
Region: Côtes de Castillon, Bordeaux, France
Grape Varieties: The wine is primarily made from Merlot, with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Merlot is the dominant grape, contributing ripe fruit flavors, smooth texture, and richness to the wine, while Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon add structure, complexity, and aromatic finesse.
Made with great care, ensuring that only the best fruit is selected. The grapes are hand-harvested to guarantee quality and undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness. After fermentation, the wine is aged in French oak barrels, with a mix of new and used barrels, which imparts subtle oak influence and adds complexity to the wine.
