Description
The Second wine of the magnificent Chateau Clos de Bouard, Dame de Bouard presents all the typicity of a great wine from Montagne-Saint-Emilion, an appellation located on the Right bank of the Bordeaux region, a few kilometers from Saint-Emilion.
The Chateau Clos de Bouard estate covers 30 hectares of vines, aged 40 years on average, planted on clay-limestone hillsides with beautiful southern exposure.
The Dame de Bouard 2018 results from a very thorough selection of the finest grapes, sorted manually, then by a Mistral and finally by optical sorting. The blend is made up of 66% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 9% Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine is aged for 10 to 14 months in barrels, of which 30% is new oak.
Produced by the talented Winemaker Coralie Bouard de Laforest and Hubert de Bouard de Laforest, the Dame de Bouard 2018 is a charming and elegant red wine from Montagne Saint-Emilion.
