Chateau La Pigotte - La Tille - Medoc
The Chateau La Pigotte 'La Tille' is an excellent Bordeaux wine from the prestigious Médoc area, which is known for its exceptional terroir. This wine is a well-balanced combination of 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from thirty-year-old vineyards. Production techniques includes fermentation in concrete vats, where half of the mix ages for a year to build complexity. The remainder matures in antique barriques, adding structure and toasty notes to the finished product.
This wine has a bright ruby-red hue in the glass with an intriguing fragrance of fresh redcurrants, plums, and wild bramble fruits. A delicate mineral undertone blends nicely with sweet spice overtones. On the finish, the wine has gentle, well-integrated tannins, resulting in a well-balanced and complex wine. This wine complements roasted meats particularly well, making it a great choice for game or lamb.
