Located further north, the communal appellation of Saint-Estèphe is renowned for its robust and powerful wines, sometimes even austere in youth. Excellent cellaring wines, they are associated with a spice character, specific to the appellation.
Next comes its neighbor Pauillac, probably the one with the most exceptional wines. Dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, it is said that the appellation embodies both the power of Saint-Estèphe, but also certain characteristics of Saint-Julien, further south, known for the minerality and elegance of the wines it produces. The latter has a little more Merlot than its neighbors, which certainly contributes to its robust but more rounded profile.
The southernmost part of the Médoc is where you’ll find the unmissable Margaux. Dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon but where Merlot is also evident, this is the appellation we grant with a pleasant suppleness and exquisite velvetiness. An iron fist in a velvet glove!
