Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Château St. Georges sits in the Libournais satellite of St-Georges-St-Émilion. The château itself was built in 1774 on the former site of a feudal castle, and its vineyards are some of the oldest in France. Known for its consistent high quality, this cuvée combines glorious fruit aromas such as cherry and plum with fine tannins and precise acid crispness. This beautifully balanced wine is a fine candidate for cellaring 2 to 5 years, or enjoy it tonight with roast beef and root vegetables. My note: A lovely weave of dark fruit and smoke: balanced, elegant and long. A profusion of dark berries on the nose and the mid-palate is rich and satisfying. Yum!
