Montagne Saint-Emilion appellation lies just outside the village of Saint-Emilion, between Pomerol and Saint-Emilion and covers around 1 600 hectares of vineyards.
Château De Courtade is the story of 2 people: the owner and his tenant, gathered around the passion of the wine. Located in the top of Montagne Saint-Emilion, vines are on clays and give a generous and complex wine.

Advice
Serving
Serve at room temperature.
Tasting
A fruity and elegant wine, expressing fresh fruit flavours. On the palate, the wine is very round with soft and well-matured tannins. While approachable and ready to drink upon release, may also be cellared for five to ten years, giving a softer, more complex wine.
Food pairings
This wine can be drunk now or left to develop for two years. Serve at room temperature and match with hearty, savoury dishes such as mushroom stroganoff or roast leg of lamb.
