Ch. Rousselle 2018

Located at only a few hundreds of meters from Gironde Estuary, among the hills which line the right bank between Blaye and Bourg, Château Rousselle invites you in the country of Bordeaux Wine's childhood.

After having given back its nobility to the house of Rousselle, Vincent Lemaitre keeps working relentlessly to produce the wine he dreamt to find while he was an amateur: a great Bordeaux wine with an affordable price.

Appearance: Château Rousselle PRESTIGE has a deep and sparkling garnet-red color, with strong expressions of fruits, it is extraordinarilly well-balanced with rich wood tones.

Aroma: The aromas of black fruits, blackberry, cherry, morello cherry and blackcurrant, harmonize with floral hints of malbec, especially violet.

Palate: The wood also gives flavors of toast, vanilla, spices; and mineral tastes are revealed from the soil. With its round and incredibly rich tannins, this wine gives a great and very long finish in the mouth. Château Rousselle PRESTIGE is a finely-worked wine, its tannins become sharper during the 4 first years; experiment this evolution is a fascinating adventure for all wine lovers. After 4 years, it will start to age with great finesse. It can be aged for a long time.

Food pairing: It will go perfectly with all meat and their sauce; with game, spicy meal, strong cheese and chocolate. Château Rousselle PRESTIGE can also be drunk as an appetizer, with a few walnuts, for the pleasure of savouring the dimensions of a great wine.
