1997 | Chateau Chante Alouette | Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy blackberry, blackcurrant and subtle bright raspberry combined with nuances of creamy/fresh plum as well as hints of lilac, licorice stick, touches of sweet spice and an imperceptible hint of coffee in the background. The tannins are finely mellow. Good length.

Producer Information

In the heart of the Saint-Emilion appellation, neighboring the Premier Grand Cru Classé "A" Château Pavie and the Grand Cru Classé La Gaffelière. The sandy soil on clay veins brings elegance, charm and suppleness to the wine. The very particular care taken both in the vineyard and in the vinification allows Château Chante-Alouette to claim the Grand Cru appellation each year. Château Chante-Alouette was taken over in 1995 by the Guy d'Arfeuille family, which owned other vintages in the Libournais. The estate was able to benefit from the experience of its elders. Benoit d'Arfeuille has been able to boost this cru by increasing the production area and by practicing a vinification that combines tradition and modernity.
