    • Description

      The Château Carignan Bordeaux is a classic red Bordeaux that beautifully combines power and elegance. Hailing from the historic Château Carignan, located east of the city of Bordeaux, this wine is made from Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. Thanks to the limestone and clay-rich soils, a smooth, fruity Bordeaux emerges with refined spiciness and a soft structure. An excellent choice for lovers of traditional Bordeaux with a modern, accessible style.

      Ripe red fruit, vanilla, and refined spices

      In the glass, this Bordeaux has a deep ruby red color. The aroma is dominated by small ripe red fruit, complemented by notes of vanilla, cedar, and refined spices. On the palate, the wine is smooth and harmonious, with a soft texture, ripe tannins, and a pleasant, elegant finish. A true Bordeaux that is both accessible and full of character.

      Historic château with modern winemaking techniques

      Château Carignan boasts a rich history dating back to 1452. The estate comprises approximately 65 hectares of vineyards, a significant portion of which consists of vines over forty years old. The grapes grow on limestone, gravel, and clay soils, ensuring a beautiful balance between fruit, structure, and elegance. After fermentation, the wine matures for nine to twelve months in French oak barriques, depending on the vintage.

      Perfect with grilled red meat

      This Bordeaux is an excellent accompaniment to grilled sirloin steak, beef tenderloin, and other classic meat dishes. Its soft, spicy character also shines beautifully with stews, lamb, and aged cheeses.
