2018 | Chateau Seraphine | Pomerol

The colour of the wine is dark red, almost black and shows great elegance and finesse with aromas of fine fresh black fruit overlaid with subtle smoky notes of wild strawberries, blackberries, cherries and cassis, with just a touch of spice and white pepper. On the palate, the wine is velvety soft, displaying rich silky tannins well supported by a further impressive register of red and black fruits running through the core, with delicate hints of chocolate and mocha that combine well to present a long, pleasant and persistent finish.

Reviews:

• Roger Voss: From a nearly three-acre vineyard, this is a dense, powerful expression of Merlot. Layers of black fruits, rich tannins and spice come together with the structure and wood aging to give a wine with considerable aging potential.

Producer Information

Château Séraphine was named as one of only five Bordeaux Properties in Wine Advocate's 'Top 100 wine discoveries of 2020'. The Seraphine winery knows that great wine is made in the vineyard and that the team working in the vines plays just as critical a role as that of the winemaker. So, we are careful to conduct our harvest according not only to our experience but also to the precision of our analysis and the ripeness of the fruit, which means that we may pass through an individual parcel two or even three times over several days in the pursuit of excellence. When harvested, our grapes are delivered to the winery in whole bunches and in small baskets for careful assessment on a first sorting table before de-stemming. The fruit is then checked again on a second berry-sorting table, before being passed gently by gravity into our bespoke steel tanks, barrels and amphoras before long ageing in 300L French oak barrels.
