Chateau du Parc Saint-Emilion 2015 750ml


$82.00

Château Du Parc is a blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc matured in 50% new oak (medium toast). It has a rounded and opulent bouquet with a boysenberry jam and raspberry nose. This wine is quite modern in style. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and good acidity.

The wine has a rich red color with sheen and great intensity.  Very ripe, red fruit notes on the nose contrast with spicy notes with beautiful complexity. On the palate, it has a great onset; frank, direct, and sustained by beautiful red fruits throughout the tasting which linger in the mouth.  Spicy and light wooden notes are present throughout.

Our suggestion is to serve Chateau Du Parc at 18°C (64°F) and to let the wine breathe for at least 60 minutes before enjoying. Our wine is best enjoyed after it has been decanted with sharp cheeses, red meat, succulent duck, or a fine cigar.

Description

Château Du Parc is located in the Saint-Émilion appellation in Bordeaux near the Dordogne River just an hour’s drive east of the city of Bordeaux. These picturesque hills of the world-renowned Saint-Émilion appellation produce some of the best wines in the region. Château Du Parc has two terroirs on its 5.5 hectares (13.6 acres). To the south, the vineyards are mostly gravel and sand-based while the north consists of clay and limestone soils. The vineyard’s terroir creates a natural drainage system; this coupled with the perfect exposure to the sun produces perfect ripening conditions for our grape varieties. Our plantings are made up of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Our vines average about 27 years in age before we replant new ones. This ensures we are producing the best wines from our vines.

Process

At Château Du Parc, we hand pick our grapes and only the grapes that produce the highest quality wine are selected in order to ensure our wine reflects the true essence of the Appellation Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Contrôlée.

After fermentation, which lasts between 7 and 10 days, we age our wines in smaller oak vats to allow them to slowly mature with a slight oak influence. Château Du Parc ages in these oak vats between 14 and 18 months.
Then the liquid is aged for a minimum of one year in our bottles. We blend our wine from both newer oak and older oak influences to produce a well-balanced full-flavored Bordeaux wine that can be enjoyed within three years of vintage or aged for 12 to 15 years.
