An opulent and elegant Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux Red Wine
This wine offers remarkable depth, featuring a rich and intricate aroma of plums and damsons. It reveals delightful layers of licorice and tobacco, complemented by a smooth, velvety texture and finely balanced tannins. The finish is long and gratifying.

STORY BEHIND THE WINE
Château d'Aiguilhe is now one of the finest vineyards in the Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux appellation on Bordeaux's Right Bank. In a region marked by the Hundred Years' War, this former fortified farm dating back to the 13th century played a military role. Now entirely devoted to winegrowing, the estate has belonged to the Comtes Von Neipperg vineyards since 1998.
