Nose

Roque de By reveals a lot of freshness with notes of anise and mint and delicate notes of blackberries.

Palate

It offers a wine on the fruit combining a beautiful freshness and a supple tannic structure. Like the nose, the attack is also fresh thanks to the temperament of the acid structure. Tannins, on the other hand, reveal themselves discreetly but accurately; they are tight and provide the aging potential.

Growing Conditions

This superb Cru Bourgeois takes its name from our family's oldest property dating from the 18th century.

Consisting of a mix of deep gravel, clays and limestone, this poor and perfectly drained soil requires suffering and efforts by the vine to create rare aromas.

Soil: Gravel, clay and limestone.

Aging

Thanks to a traditional 12-month breeding, it will be able to keep for nearly 10 years.

Food Pairing

This Château La Roque de By - Cru Bourgeois 2018, will be a real treat on Tricandilles du Médoc or a black pudding made by the butcher.

Excellent with a Beaufort or an old county.

Can also be enjoyed on a chocolate fondant

This magnificent Cru Bourgeois takes its name from our family's oldest property dating from the 18th century. This was then brought together in the 19th century, with that of La Tour de By. From a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, this pretty Cru Bourgeois comes from vines located on a magnificent gravelly and clay-limestone terroir, next to that of La Tour de By, in the municipality of Saint Christoly-de-Médoc. It offers a wine on the fruit combining beautiful freshness and round tannins. Thanks to a traditional 12-month breeding, it will be able to keep for nearly 10 years.
