Description
Generous & Elegant, this Grand Cru is an excellent representation of Right Bank Bordeaux. Rich clay and limestone soils allows Merlot and Cabernet Franc grapes to shine.
Chateau Mangot is a centuries old estate in Saint Emilion, now family run for the last 55 years. Old vines form the basis of their expertly curated blends. Packed with layers of dark fruit – blackberries, black cherries, plums, blueberries and rich chocolatey licorice notes. Expect depth of fruit backed with hints of smoke and warmth. Velvety smooth on the palate with a rich round body.
2020 proved to be an excellent (possibly legendary) vintage in Saint Emilion. Early spring after a mild winter and an extremely hot summer meant lots of extremely ripe fruit. Merlot proving to be the star offering concentrated rich fruit flavors and balanced vanilla and herb notes. A vintage to enjoy now, or cellar for up to 20 years in the right conditions
