2007 | Chateau Coudert | Saint Emilion Grand Cru

The nose is fresh, powerful and offers concentration. It reveals notes of crushed wild strawberry and crushed cassis associated with small notes of menthol, flowers as well as a hint of spices. The palate is fruity, mineral, relatively gourmand, suave and offers freshness, a slight juiciness, a slight acid frame as well as a certain harmony.

Producer Information

The Carles Vineyards were founded by Jean-Claude Carles and his wife Marie-Danielle Carles to group and exploit family properties acquired over the years on the St-Emilion terroir. Château Panet is the flagship of the estate. Transmitted by Jean-Claude’s great aunt in 1924, it is now the main production site of the estate. Passionate about wine and vineyard work, Jean-Claude continued to expand the vineyard. In 1948, he acquires Clos La Rose, an area with great potential as it brings soil diversity and novelty to the range. In 1957, he purchases Château Haut-Fonrazade, an estate allowing him to meet the high demand for wine in the post-war years. In 1961, he falls in love with Château Coudert, a beautiful and promising site that he includes in his vineyards. He then meets his wife, Marie-Danielle, and together, they decide to completely renovate the building while preserving the majestic tower dating circa 1800. This is where they settle in with their family and cultivate the vineyard of one of their best wines. In 1994, Mrs Carles inherits a part of the family estate in Pomerol where she decides to create the vintage Château Croix des Rouzes. The Carles Vineyards open up onto another prestigious Bordeaux wine appellation, Pomerol. Today, the story continues with Jérôme and Gilles Carles, the two sons who have taken over the reins of the family business and are actively contributing to its development. Together, they buy Clos Jacquemeau in 1999 to produce their own vintage. With a fresh take on the family business, they bring in a new management style turned towards relationships building, in order to strengthen the cohesion of the team. They also install new technologies and innovations that highlight the vintages of the estate.
