Château Graves De Pez, Aop Saint-estèphe, Red
The vineyard is situated on some of the finest terroir of Saint Estephe, on the hallowed gravel plateau shared among parcels from Château Montrose, Cos d’Estournel and Haut Marbuzet. The result is a very enjoyable Saint Estèphe with a beautiful fruit expression. A true gem!
The story
The Saint Martin family knows how to make and run a great Saint Estèphe property having contributed a generation to Chateau Lafon Rochet. The new generation, Maxime Saint Martin, has taken over these 3 hectares to create a wonderful wine, true to its terroir and massively attractive. He makes his wine with the help of consultant winemaker Jacques Boissenot , one of the finest consultant in Bordeaux, having been responsible for the quality of 4 of the 5 first growths (Mouton Rothschild, Lafite Rothschild, Latour, Margaux) for many years.
