Excellent Grand Cru from Saint-Emilion in the Right Bank of Bordeaux.
On the palate, Château de Cruzeau is tasty with the presence of juicy, ripe blackberry fruit mixed with light woody notes, reinforcing its complexity. It will be the ideal companion of a beef filet en croûte, stuffed quails or a veal shank à l'étouffée.
This impressive château was built in the 16th century in Saint-Emilion. Vines had already been planted around it in 1785. It became the property of the Luquot family in 1907. Since then, the property has been managed by the family with the objective of expressing the authentic qualities of the soil. Today, the fourth generation continues to invest in the quality of their vineyards and in their wine.
