La Grande Cuvee du Chateau Vermont Rouge
Chateau Vermont
France - Bordeaux - Bordeaux Superieur

Produced from the best parcels of the estate, with low yields and optimal maturity, the wine reveals the expression of the Entre-deux-Mers terroir.

The Grande Cuvee boasts a deep ruby color and displays a pleasant bouquet of red berries and plum highlighting the expression of the dominant Merlot. Rich, refined, fruity and deep in structure, the palate shows good concentration and a harmonious balance. Long flavors of ripe fruits and vanilla nuances give way to an elegant cuvee.

 "Ripe and smoky with wood aged flavors, the wine is full bodied and structured. Blackberry flavors and a cut of acidity are an attractive contrast to the wine's texture. Drink this wine from 2025. - Roger VOSS."
