Vignobles Siozard, Château Du Claouset Bordeaux Superieur Rouge 2018

Le Claouset, a humble hamlet in the village of Lugaignac and anchor of the Siozard family, means in Gascon dialect, “the little clos”. In 1830, the first generation settled in this garden. Today, most of the farm buildings are located at Claouset. The Claouset vineyard is the oldest of the Siozard family, however it is today a field of experimentation for the re-establishment of old Bordeaux grape varieties and the creation of new blends. A supple wine with a pleasant red fruit bouquet, spices and tobacco. Round tannins in mouth and a beautiful length. Wine of thirst, it will perfectly match with your meats or pork-butcheries. "Benchmark Bordeaux here, with bags of red fruit on the nose, some spice and tobacco. The palate shows great concentration, with lovely purity to the fruit framed by supple tannins, leading to a long, satisfying finish. Pair with a steak and off you go!", Our note
