Clos De L’oratoire St Emi Grc 2000

Château Clos de l’Oratoire is a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé estate renowned for its exceptional wines. The 2000 vintage is a blend of 60% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. It exhibits a deep garnet color with aromas of ripe blackcurrant, plum, and cedar. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of minerality. The tannins are firm but well-integrated, providing structure and a long, elegant finish. This wine is best served at a temperature of 16-18°C (60-64°F) and pairs well with grilled red meats, hearty stews, and mature cheeses.
