Selected in 2018 by the Conseil Interprofessionnel du Vin de Bordeaux

CHATEAU SAINTE BARBE 2005 was awarded two stars (remarkable wine). “This wine continues to keep its two stars from one year to another, a proof of its example of regularity. Composed of 20% Cabernet grapes, Merlot from a clay soil dominates this vintage with its dark red color that gives more flavors spices and resins associated with ripe red fruits. Volume, roundness, fruity: the palette is durable, structured with solid tannins but coated the lingering finish leaves a smooth burgundy impression. This wine can wait two or three years. “..

CHATEAU MERLOT SAINTE BARBE 2005 received a star (successful wine). “Made exclusively from merlot grapes and aged in vats, ready to drink”.
