Chateau Maison Blanche Montagne-Saint-Emilion 2006
Maison Blanche 2006 is the great wine of Château Maison Blanche, in AOP Montagne-Saint-Emilion, made exclusively from Cabernet and Merlot from old vines, mostly old varieties, planted in historic terroirs.
It is a powerful wine that offers very good ageing potential, up to 20 years and more. This 2006 vintage expresses itself on aromas of ripe black fruits, empyreumatic notes and spicy touches, with a beautiful velvety substance on the palate, rich and with supple tannins.
Maison Blanche is a pioneer of organic and biodynamic viticulture in Bordeaux, with the adoption of biodynamics in 2001, the conversion to organic farming in 2005, the Ecocert organic certification in 2009 and the Demeter biodynamic certification in 2013.
