Chateau La Louviere Pessac Leognan Rouge 2018

"Château La Louvière has many fascinating facets. The sumptuous architecture of the château building dates from the late 18th century, but winegrowing here goes back more than 700 years. The first vines were planted circa 1310, although modern winemaking dates from the 17th century and was handed down by able monks from the Carthusian monastery in Bordeaux, who had acquired considerable talent as viticulturists and winemakers. The people who produce the wine in the 21st century have inherited these time-honored methods, adding just the right amount of innovation and modernity to make the utmost of the outstanding terroir.
This wine has a clear, brilliant, deep color close to garnet red. Charming, with components of cocoa and sweet spice. Delicious on the palate and attractive. Round, complex, and enjoyable to drink thanks to red fruit flavors, with an aftertaste of cocoa and toasted overtones. Enjoy with osso bucco, grilled beef fillet, and lamb." -Supplier notes
