Indulge in the elegance of Bordeaux with Chateau de Respide, a distinguished red wine from the renowned Graves appellation. This wine exemplifies the rich heritage of Bordeaux winemaking, offering a perfect balance of power, structure, and finesse.

Tasting Notes:

  • Appearance: Garnet-red in colour, this wine displays a vibrant and lively hue that reflects its youthful energy and depth.
  • Nose: The bouquet is a delightful mix of red berries intertwined with balsamic notes, creating an aromatic profile that is both inviting and complex. The subtle hints of spice add an extra layer of intrigue to the nose.
  • Palate: On the palate, Chateau de Respide is well-structured and wide, with a softness that makes it approachable and enjoyable. The wine is spicy but balanced, ensuring that the flavours are bold yet not overpowering. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a lasting impression of refined tannins and bright acidity.

Winemaking and Terroir: Chateau de Respide is crafted from a blend of 67% Merlot and 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, grown on deep gravel soils with a layer of limestone. These soils contribute to the wine’s minerality and structure, while the careful cultivation of the vines ensures that the fruit expresses the unique terroir of the Graves region.

Vinification and Aging: After careful selection, the grapes undergo traditional vinification methods. The wine is then aged for 6 months in oak barrels, with one-third of the barrels being new. This short aging period in oak preserves the wine’s softness and brightness while adding subtle hints of vanilla and spice that complement the fruit-driven profile.

Food Pairing Suggestions: Chateau de Respide is a versatile wine that pairs beautifully with a range of dishes. It is an excellent match for red meats, particularly roasted lamb or beef, as well as game dishes like venison or duck. The wine’s structure and subtle spiciness also make it a great companion for rich cheeses, enhancing the flavors of both the wine and the food.

A Wine for All Occasions: Whether you are enjoying a casual dinner or celebrating a special occasion, Chateau de Respide Bordeaux - Graves is a wine that will impress and satisfy. Its balanced profile and elegant finish make it a perfect choice for those who appreciate the classic style of Bordeaux wines.
