Grape

Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc

Origin
A well made cru bourgeois claret, from the vineyards of a 28-hectare estate with a southerly aspect. The vines here average 20 years of age, but this wine is made from parcels of younger vines, for an early-maturing and supple style.
Taste
Plenty of ripe red and black forest fruits on both nose and palate, with subtle spiciness and a restrained savoury streak. Tannins are slim and pliant, for an easy-drinking, mellow feel.
Enjoy
Fully mature and drinking perfectly now. Best served with lamb stew.

Press Reviews

  • A great claret (2006 Vintage)

    "A great claret for a traditional Easter lunch, this is stylish and elegant with sweet ripe berries and plenty of balance. (Jamie Goode, Sunday Express, 1st April 2012)"

  • a modern claret (2006 Vintage)

    "How can such a tiny percentage make any difference when the major proportions are cabernet and merlot? The answer is seasoning. Similar principles apply to the 2006 Château Romefort, a modern claret – only here it's the 7 per cent cabernet franc that brings a freshness to the blackcurranty merlot and cabernet sauvignon. (Anthony Rose, Independent, 10th March)"

  • punches well above its weight (2006 Vintage)

    "2006 was a good, not great, Bordeaux vintage and this vibrant merlot/cabernet sauvignon, with a dash of cabernet franc, punches well above its weight. (Jane MacQuitty, Saturday Times, 10th March 2012)"
