The make-up of the vineyard gives Château Barreyres its elegant profile, recalling the style of properties in the neighbouring Margaux appellation. On the nose, delicate aromas of red fruits and peony give way to more nuanced notes of tobacco and spices. Delicate tannins make for a texture that is at once firm and silky.
La Griffe de Barreyres displays an intense carmine hue. Its expressive nose reveals an agreeable fruity complexity with subtle hints of cocoa. The perfectly balanced palate is built on tight tannins and a succulent body. The overall impression is one of a finely-crafted balance that is not without a certain power. This is a wine of character that mirrors its terroir.
