Château Fontesteau Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois Supérieur AC 2019

Château Fontesteau Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois Supérieur AC 2019 is an expressive gourmet wine from the traditional Haut-Médoc, one of the most renowned wine-growing regions in Bordeaux. The vines grow on gravelly soils with limestone and clay, which give the grapes a special finesse and structure. The Château Fontesteau vineyard, known for its sustainable cultivation, produces a great red wine that harmoniously combines elegance and power.

In the glass, the wine is a deep ruby red with violet reflections. The nose reveals a complex interplay of aromas of blackcurrants, blackberries and ripe cherries, accompanied by subtle hints of violets, cedar wood and roasted cocoa beans. It is full-bodied on the palate, with a fine tannin structure, well-integrated acidity and a long, spicy finish with notes of licorice and tobacco.

The grapes are carefully selected and vinified traditionally. Château Fontesteau Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois Supérieur AC 2019 was matured in 75% barrique barrels, 20% of which were new. This gave it additional depth and elegance. The perfect balance of fruit and wood makes it accessible at a young age, but also gives it good ageing potential.

This dry red wine is an excellent accompaniment to classic French dishes such as bœuf bourguignon, rack of lamb or duck breast. It is also an excellent choice with strong cheeses or grilled beef.

For best enjoyment, a serving temperature of 16-18 °C is recommended.

Château Fontesteau

Château Fontesteau liegt im Haut-Médoc, unweit von Paulliac inmitten seiner Weinberge, und ist eines der traditionellen Weingüter mit der Klassifizierung „Cru Bourgeois“.

Château Fontesteau geht zurück auf das Jahr 1277. Über dem Eingang befindet sich noch heute der gekrönte Salamander, das Wappen aus der Zeit des französischen Königs Francois 1., der unter anderem auch die großen Loire Schlösser Blois und Chambord erbauen ließ.

Von dem 100 Hektar umfassenden Besitz werden heute etwa 35 Hektar unter der Leitung von Dominique und Jean-Christophe Barron bewirtschaftet. Um kontinuierlich hohe Qualität zu garantieren, wird beim Ausbau der Weine moderne Technik mit traditionellen Methoden verbunden. Die einzigartige Konstruktion des 1997 erbauten Barrique-Kellers von Château Fontesteau garantiert während des ganzen Jahres ein natürliches, gleichbleibendes Klima - ideale Reifebedingungen für edle Rotweine. Die gut strukturierten Rotweine des Château Fontesteau werden im Barrique ausgebaut. Feine Röst- und Vanilletöne fügen sich harmonisch in das breite Spektrum edler Fruchtaromen ein und verleihen den Weinen ein gutes Alterungspotenzial. Je nach Jahrgang sollte Château Fontesteau noch 2-3 Jahre in der Flasche reifen, bevor er seine Trinkreife erreicht. Große Jahrgänge wie der 2000er oder 2001er entwickeln sich zehn und mehr Jahre.

Château Malescasse Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois AOP 2014
2020 wurde Château Malescasse in den Rang eines Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel gehoben, die höchste Stufe, die es innerhalb dieser Klassifikation zu erreichen gilt."Schuld" daran dürfte auch der 2014 Malescasse sein, der als erster Jahrgang unter Mitwirkung des Star-Önologen Stéphane Derononcourt entstand. 54% Merlot, 36% Cabernet Sauvignon und 10% Petit Verdot machen eine im besten Sinne runde Assemblage aus, wobei die malolaktische Gärung im Holzfass stattfand, bei 35% Neufassanteil und der Wein schließlich für volle 14 Monate in den Fässern nachreifen durfte.Eine rubinrote Farbe begrüßt uns, in der ausdrucksstarken Nase begegnen uns Schwarze Johannisbeere, Brombeere und Himbeere, alle mit einer schönen, reifen Note. Aromen von Röstmokka verleihen dem Wein eine große Eleganz und Komplexität. Am Gaumen sehr rund und stoffig, mit einem perfekten Spiel von Säure und Alkohol. Die Tannine sind seidig und führen zum ausgesprochen langanhaltenden und intensiven Ausklang hin.Wir empfehlen, den Wein mindestens eine halbe Stunde lang zu dekantieren.

The Château Malescasse 2022 comes from Lamarque, which is located in the renowned Haut-Médoc appellation, between Margaux and Saint-Julien.

On the palate, Château Malescasse is powerful and concentrated, yet remarkably balanced. The ripe, finely textured tannins lend it depth and elegance, while a pleasant freshness provides balance. The long finish is accompanied by recurring dark fruit and spicy accents.Culinary-wise, this Bordeaux pairs superbly with hearty meat dishes such as beef tenderloin, entrecôte, rack of lamb, or game. It also pairs excellently with braised dishes, mushroom dishes with truffles, and aged hard cheeses.
