Château Croix Chantecaille 2021 is an elegant and approachable Saint-Émilion Grand Cru that perfectly reflects the character of the Bordeaux region. This wine has a beautiful ruby colour and reveals aromas of ripe cherry, cassis and a touch of spice. On the palate the wine presents soft, rounded tannins, with flavours of red and black fruit balanced by subtle earthy and spicy notes. The structure is balanced, with a smooth finish that offers a light minerality, typical of the Saint-Émilion terroir. The 2016 vintage gave Château Croix Chantecaille a wine that is ready to drink now, but can also age for several more years. This wine pairs ideally with lamb chops, a fine piece of entrecôte or a selection of mature cheeses, with the rich, fruity notes of the wine complementing the dishes harmoniously.
Delicious with lamb chops, entrecôte or mature cheeses.
