We tasted his new, under-the-radar project, Chateau Cherubin, a Saint-Emilion jewel right next door to Chateau L’Angelus. It is a “living” vineyard that is rich in iron, creating a deep, dark and elegant wine with a strong minerality and smooth tannins. Bertrand is very focused on his organic production that he hand-harvests and manually de-stems on an unusual slotted wood sorting table that prevents any immature grapes from being incorporated. The production is tiny, just 600 cases.
VERY HAPPY TO OFFER |
