Elegant and rich, Chateau Chapelle d ’Alienor 2015 shows exquisite aromas of black cherry, black plum, violet, cocoa, molasse, cigar and oak. Made from 74% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine reveals a full body with polished tannins and structure. This gem from Entre Deux Mers delivers flavors of black skin plum, blackberry, bay leaf, coffee, leather, baking-spice and oak. Enjoy!
Under the same ownership as Château la Gaffelière in Saint-Emilion, this estate has produced a sumptuously ripe wine. Its tannins are softened enough to integrate with the generous black fruits. Acidity keeps the wine in balance. Drink from 2020. ROGER VOSS

Simple guyot pruning. Sorting of grapes by density, berry sorting. Vinification by parcel in stainless steel ( temperature controlled tanks). Malolactic fermentation in tank.
