Château Lassègue Saintémilion Grand Cru

CHÂTEAU LASSÈGUE SAINTÉMILION GRAND CRU is a prestigious red wine from the Saint-Émilion appellation in Bordeaux, France. It is produced by Château Lassègue, a historic estate that has been producing wine for over four centuries.

The wine is made from a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. The grapes are grown on the estate’s 25 hectares of vineyards, which are located on the limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion. The vines are planted at a density of 6,500 vines per hectare, and the average age of the vines is 35 years.

The wine is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, of which 50% are new. During this time, the wine develops its complex flavors and aromas. The wine is then bottled and aged for an additional 12 months before being released for sale.
