DUE OCT/NOV 2027
From argilo-graveleux soils and based on 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, brought up in 30% new oak for 16 months, the 2024 Château Rouget has a distinctly herbal component in its darker fruits as well as peppery herbs, graphite, and damp earth-like nuances. It's beautiful on the palate and has a ripe, layered mouthfeel, plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It's a singular, impressive, beautiful wine that I'd be happy to own.

Medium intensity plum colour, understated red fruits on the nose, unrolls slowly, shows precision and careful construction. This is enjoyable, gentle and well expressed, builds to a juicy finish with chalky tannins, fresh acidities. 3.6 pH. Harvest 21 October. Grape variety given is as planted, not specific to the 2024 vintage. Tasted twice.
