Chateau Saint-Estephe

2009 Saint Estephe Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon

Chateau Domeyne from the esteemed Saint-Estephe region is a splendid blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon that beautifully exemplifies the character of its vintage. This red wine displays an inviting deep ruby hue, enticing the senses from the very first glance. On the palate, it reveals a medium-bodied profile complemented by a vibrant acidity that showcases a harmonious balance with the fruit intensity, which is both prominent and expressive, presenting lush flavors of dark berries and subtle hints of plum. The tannins are firm yet approachable, providing structure and depth without overwhelming the wine's elegant character. With its lingering finish, this wine is wonderfully dry, making it a delightful choice for those seeking a classic representation of Saint-Estephe that can pair beautifully with rich roasted meats or decadent cheeses.
