Description

Product Description:The 2019 Chateau St. Georges Saint-Georges-Saint-Émilion is a classic expression from one of the most historically significant estates in Bordeaux’s right bank. Situated just northeast of Saint-Émilion proper, the chateau’s 45-hectare vineyard lies on limestone-rich slopes, with clay and gravel contributing to both structure and aromatic lift. The blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc reflects traditional proportions, with Merlot providing plush fruit, Cabernet Franc lending fragrance and finesse, and Cabernet Sauvignon adding backbone. Vinification follows traditional Bordelais methods, with extended maceration and oak maturation to bring depth and integration. The 2019 vintage, marked by excellent growing conditions, produced wines of both generosity and tension. This bottling offers immediate pleasure in its dark-fruited richness, but has the structure to reward careful cellaring over the next 8–12 years. An ideal match for roast lamb, grilled duck breast or earthy lentil-based dishes.
