Château Guinot consistently over-delivers and this stunning 2020 Grand Cru is absolutely no exception. Benefiting from one of the greatest recent vintages in Bordeaux, this Merlot-dominant blend was meticulously crafted and aged in premium French oak to ensure perfect elegance. You'll be greeted by an alluring nose of dark plum, ripe black cherry and subtle baking spices. On the palate it's wonderfully plush, displaying velvety tannins and a beautifully persistent finish. It's drinking brilliantly right now but certainly has the structural pedigree to comfortably cellar for a decade or more.

Why do we love this wine?
Saint-Émilion is widely celebrated as the crown jewel of the Bordeaux Right Bank and the terroir here is nothing short of legendary. The vineyards at Château Guinot are blessed with classic clay and limestone soils that provide the absolute perfect environment for Merlot and Cabernet Franc to thrive. These unique soils act like a sponge, retaining essential moisture during the hot summer months while imparting a brilliant natural freshness to the grapes. The estate relies on generations of traditional winemaking know-how to coax the very best out of these vines, ensuring yields are kept meticulously low for maximum flavour concentration. When you pour a glass of this spectacular 2020 release, you're experiencing the rich history, vibrant terroir and uncompromising quality that makes Saint-Émilion Grand Cru so highly coveted across the globe.
