Château de Côme C.B. | St.-Estèphe | BIO

Red wine | France, SAINT-ESTEPHE | 2018
We notice a deep ruby red color with a complex nose of red and black fruits with a hint of vanilla. On the palate, we obtain a full-bodied, rich and fruity wine with a lot of finesse and elegance, supported by fine tannins. A long finish completes this wine. This wine is one of the most accessible of the appellation.

About Château de Côme

Maurice Velge from Antwerp realized his dream in 1997 with the start of Château Clauzet. Together with José Bueno, who was active at Baron Philippe de Rothschild for 23 years, he expanded this wine domain from 10 hectares to the current 30 hectares. Maurice and his wife Michèle are very proud to be Flemings in Saint-Estèphe. Château de Côme has 7 hectares, partly Cabernet Sauvignon and partly Merlot. The terroir consists of gravel and limestone, on which vines stand with an average age of 40 years. Every year 40,000 bottles are bottled on this domain.
