Despagne-Rapin Montagne-Saint-Emilion 2016
This Montagne-Saint-Emilion 2016 is a Bordeaux red wine made exclusively from the Cabernet Franc and Merlot grape varieties, for about 50% each, vinified naturally without any inputs. It is certified Demeter in biodynamics and Ecocert in organic farming.
It is a wine with intense aromas of black fruits, which offers a powerful, fleshy, velvety substance on the palate, perfectly balanced by a beautiful freshness. It can be enjoyed today or stored in the cellar until around 2030. It will go very well with risotto, pasta with pesto and many cheeses.
