Chateau Grand Pey Lescours Saint Emilion Grand Cru 2016

Indulge in the elegance of Chateau Grand-Pey-Lescours St-Emilion Grand Cru, a meticulously crafted blend dominated by Merlot with a touch of Cabernet Franc to enhance its complexity and structure. This refined wine offers a symphony of mature bramble and cherry fruit, enveloping the palate with its soft, smooth texture and remarkable depth, culminating in a satisfyingly long finish.

Under the stewardship of Monsieur Bouldy, renowned for his work at Château Bellegrave in Pomerol, Château Grand-Pey-Lescours has flourished since the late 1980s. Nestled just outside the boundaries of St. Emilion, this 25-hectare Grand Cru estate sits on clay-limestone soils, providing an ideal terroir for its predominantly Merlot and Cabernet Franc vines, cultivated organically to ensure purity and expression.

Unlike many Bordeaux producers, Monsieur Bouldy opts for patience over haste, offering minimal wine en primeur and waiting until he deems the wines ready to be enjoyed. This dedication to quality shines through in every bottle of Grand-Pey-Lescours, making it a benchmark for both excellence and value in the Saint-Emilion region, and indeed, Bordeaux as a whole.
