Château Moutinot Saint-Estephe 13,5%
The geology of the Saint Estephe appellation is particularly different to its neighbouring appellations. Firstly, the average altitude is higher, with slopes which enable rainfall to drain and limestone sub-soils which bring water back up through capillarity during periods of drought. Two ledges in the shape of a half-moon from South to East, facing the Gironde River,
emphasise once again the originality of this vineyard area.
The presence of clay in Saint Estephe marks a real difference with the other terroirs. It has meant that exceptional wines could be made in very dry years.
The Saint Estèphe style of architecture in the village and in the properties adds a mineral touch which delicately punctuates the range of greens in the vineyards. It is in this special landscape that Chateau Moutinot is located, at the heart of a vineyard area which includes five classified growths and four ‘crus bourgeois exceptionnels’.
Chateau Yon Figeac Grand Cru Classe 14.5%
The wines of Château Yon-Figeac express the classicism of Saint-Emilion while adding their own touch of modernity: remarkable fruitiness, spicy notes and unprecedented freshness.
This balance and elegance, common to all vintages, constitute the identity of Château Yon-Figeac wines and are intrinsically linked to the terroir and the techniques adopted in the vineyard and cellar.
