Description
A brilliant value discovery with this 2019 vintage, Château Peymouton is part of the estate of Château Laroque, an historic Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Émilion located on a limestone plateau just 3.5 km east of the medieval village. With Peymouton, the estate focuses on creating a wine that expresses the elegance of Saint-Emilion in a vibrant, fruit-driven style that can be enjoyed after just a few years of cellaring. A blend of 72% Merlot with 22% Cabernet Franc and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, this 2019 has a bright, ruby-purple colour, aromas being open and attractively floral. This is a lively, juicy mouthful, being medium bodied, fresh and with a finely tannic finish (for drinking 2022-2025+).

These wines have the ability to gain smoothness, complexity and silkiness as they mature.
