Château La Pierriere Cotes de Castillon Bordeaux 2015 - Magnum
£20.00
This winery would fit in very well in Game of Thrones, perhaps if it was imagined by George RR Martin this wine could have been made by Runceford Redwyne, Lord of the Arbor. Was that reference too esoteric? Apologies, we'll keep it to dire wolves and cold zombies from here on in. You see, Chateau Pierriere is a castle surrounded by moats dug into the rock that could probably compete with Winterfell for its protective capabilities. Thus, this wine with intense blackcurrant and raspberry flavours balanced with silky tannins can be enjoyed safe in the knowledge, Ramsey Bolton, Cersei Lannister or the Night King himself can't get at you.
The oldest part of Chateau La Pierriere dates back to the end of the 18th century, at which point it was a strong house surrounded by moats. The current occupants' ancestor Francois de Lageard received the Chateau as a dowry when marrying Marguerite de Puyperron and it has remained within the family who have extended the property throughout the years by creating an inner courtyard, building a chapel and a round tower.
Today, the winery at Chateau La Pierriere operates with a simple goal: to pick grapes at the peak of their ripeness to ultimately give birth to great wines. Their Merlot provides fruit flavours to supple and round wines; The Cabernet Francs and Cabernet Sauvignons provide a structure to their wines that allow the wines to age.
This red wine is an intense ruby red in colour and expresses pleasant aromas of blackcurrant and raspberry. The palate is driven by ripe fruit flavours followed by silky tannins that characterise the wine in a similar style to that of Saint-Emillion.
