Chateau Le Bosq is one of the great classics in the St. Estephe appellation. It occupies the whole of a gritty hilltop, characteristic of the best parts of this appellation. The Chateau itself is a majestic building built at the end of the 18th century, with one of the facades facing the vines, and the other giving a magnificent view of the Gironde estuary. As early as the 1995 vintage, the Dourthe team, advised by Michel Rolland, undertook a great many changes. Harvesting is staggered and now done by hand with sorting operations. Old wooden vats have been replaced by stainless steel for vinification in separate batches, while the barrels have been entirely renewed for maturing. 1996 saw a great deal of further investment at the Chateau including the complete renovation of the vinification complex. A blend of 60% Merlot, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7%Cabernet Franc and 10% Petit Verdot, Château Le Boscq is a fine, distinctive terroir wine that elegantly combines the power of Saint Estephe with unusual suppleness. The sweet fruit and spicey aromas of this 2000 vintage Saint Estephe are complemeted by the great structure of this wine. Soft tannins and a nice finish make this a wine to enjoy. (12 x 75 cl)
