Château Patache d'Aux Cru Bourgeois Médoc Cru Bourgeois, France, presents a still, dry red wine crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. Fermented in a combination of used oak, cement, and stainless steel, then aged for 12-14 months in oak barrels and stainless steel, this wine offers a plush, bright fruit character. Expect notes of blackcurrant, spiced black plum, and liquorice on the nose and palate, supported by structured yet smooth tannins and a fresh, long-lasting finish. Its powerful richness makes it an excellent accompaniment to roasted lamb, mature cheeses, or rich game dishes.

Vinification
The grapes were machine harvested at optimal maturity. They were then fermented in temperature-controlled concrete vats at 25 °C for three to four weeks with regular but gentle punching downs. The finished blend was aged for 12 months in one-third new French oak barrels, one-third one-year old oak barrels and one-third concrete tanks.
Flavour profile

Serving recommendation
Serve at 16-18°C. Decant for an hour to allow its rich character to develop.
