Caronne St Gemme

The property of the Nony-Borie family for many centuries. The reputation of this Chateau continues to grow, both at home and abroad. 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot. (6 x 1.5 Litres)

The vineyards are located in the central Medoc, near St Laurent Medoc, not far from Chateau Camensac, Chateau Belgrave and Chateau La Tour Carnet to the north, and Chateau Lanessan to the east. Caronne Ste Gemme derives its name from Carona, a nearby spring, with Ste Gemme being a derivative of St James, a local parish. The 45 ha of vines sit on a gravel plateau typical of the Medoc, over an iron rich clay-sandstone base at the western end and a more sandy mix towards the Gironde. The encepagement is also fairly typical; there is a dominance of Cabernet Sauvignon, with a little less Merlot and just a few Petit Verdot vines with an average age of 25 years. This wine has a dense, macerated fruit nose while full of texture and fruit on the palate. A great Cabernet Sauvignon with plenty of tannin, dominating the palate, despite the presence of some Super-ripe fruit it is a complex, intense, pure, structured wine. (12 x 75 cl)
