Situated on superb gravelly hilltops, perfectly oriented, Château de Cruzeau benefits from ideal natural conditions for vine-growing. The result is consistently fine, elegant reds, the perfect expression of the exceptional terroir of Pessac-Léognan.
vinification: in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats with patented crumbling system. Aging: 12 months in barrels (30-40% new) with quarterly racking.
Delicately spiced, with notes of truffle and undergrowth, these modern, charming wines are particularly well-balanced, with freshness, lovely structure and delicious fruit aromas.
Cask sample. Rich and creamy compote nose, with a note of graphite and pencil lead. The tannins are very fine and well managed, supporting the medium-bodied and moderate intensity of fruit. Attractive and well balanced in a juicy succulent style.
