Palate

Lots of sweet fruit, juicy red fruit, succulent and filled with fruity pleasure. A fresh, clean wine with currants, spice and light chocolate character. Medium body and fine tannins. Easy finish.

Growing Conditions

2017 was an early but balanced vintage. Spring frost was avoided thanks to the hilltop morphology of our vineyard and its proximity to the Gironde. The grapes were able to develop rapidly and homogeneously, benefiting from heat and necessary episodes of rain. The attention paid to the vineyard allowed us to reach full maturity and to maintain a very good sanitary state until the last days of the harvest.

Winemaking

The Merlots offer a soft tannic structure and expressive fruit. The Cabernet Francs are dense and complex. The Cabernet Sauvignons are powerful yet silky. The Chapelle 2017 is thus fresh and luscious, with supple tannins and a bright liveliness to enjoy sooner.

Appearance

Bright crimson.
