Chateau de Ferrand Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2019 750 ML

Planted on the clay-limestone hillsides of Saint-Hippolyte at around 100 meters above sea level, Ferrand is one of the highest vineyards in the Saint-emilion appellation. It looks down onto a curve in the Dordogne valley and enjoys ideal exposure to the winds. The grapes varieties are 70% merlot, 29% cabernet franc and 1% cabernet sauvignon, providing roundness, freshness, minerality, acidity and a lingering finish that herald perfect balance and a wonderfully long life. Staying true to the wines of the Saint-emilion appellation, Chateau de Ferrand has a garnet colour and an intense nose of ripe fruit and spice. It is clean in the attack with smooth tannins. It then develops very ripe red fruit, blackcurrant, raspberry and blueberry notes and a lingering, elegant finish.
