Today we find ourselves in the beautiful hills of Saint-Émilion. Here comes Château Poesia Grand Cru, a wine that is well representative of its terroir of origin. The vineyards extend over clay-limestone soils, characterised by optimal drainage and a mineral richness that gives the grapes distinctive characteristics. Merlot accounts for 70% and Cabernet Franc for the remainder. The Merlot gives the wine softness, roundness and intense fruity aromas. The Cabernet Franc brings structure, elegance and a spicy note that completes the bouquet. Harvested by hand, the grapes are then fermented in stainless steel and cement vats. The long ageing in French oak barrels can last from 18 to 24 months and gives the wine complexity, harmony and an extraordinary capacity for ageing. Intense ruby red colour with garnet highlights, the nose reveals a complex and fascinating bouquet that opens with fruity notes of plum and black cherry, combined with spicy hints of black pepper and liquorice, and delicate floral nuances of violet. In the mouth, it conquers with its lively, silky structure and fine, velvety tannins. The persistent finish leaves an indelible impression. It goes well with red meats, game and mature cheeses. Try it with a roast lamb with thyme or a filet with green pepper.
