Château Sansonnet: Right Bank Grand Cru Classé Power

As a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé, Château Sansonnet stands as a beacon of quality on Bordeaux’s Right Bank. Situated on the prestigious clay-limestone plateau, this Merlot-dominant blend is crafted for those who appreciate intensity, purity, and profound aging potential. It represents a modern yet classic approach to Bordeaux winemaking, delivering a wine that is both sensuous and structured.

Tasting Notes (Typical Vintage Profile)

• Appearance: A deep, opaque ruby core transitioning to a vibrant garnet rim, indicative of its concentration.
• Nose: An expressive and complex nose that bursts with ripe black fruit (blackberry jam, plum preserves, black cherry), layered with notes of spice, mocha, licorice, and a hint of graphite.
• Palate: Full-bodied, rich, and supple on the attack. The mid-palate is luxurious, framed by fine-grained, silky tannins and a juicy core of fruit. The finish is long, persistent, and impeccably balanced, showcasing both power and elegance.

Pairing & Serving Excellence

This wine is built to impress and demands a thoughtful pairing. Decanting for 1-2 hours is highly recommended to allow the wine to soften and its complex perfume to fully unfold.

• Serving Temperature: 60°F – 64°F (15.5°C – 18°C).
• Food Match: Ideal with classic meat dishes and rich, savory courses.
