Château D'Arcie 2022

The 40 year old vines are tended with respect for the environment and the wine is a perfect example of this most fashionable of Appellations at a price that won’t break the bank.

Advice
Serving
Serve at room temperature.
On the palate
There is obvious sweet fruit which is very pure and deeply concentrated. It is elegant and refined with very typical Saint-Emilion characteristics.
Food pairings
This is a perfect partner for red meat, especially grilled pieces of beef, although it makes a good match for roast poultry.
Reviews
"Plump and pretty fruity with dark cherries, plums and a touch of spiced oranges and minerals. Juicy and well structured, this has medium to full body and a firm finish. Better from 2025." [+]
