Product Info

92 - 93 poet - James Suckling

Château d'Aiguilhe je jedno od vodećih imanja u Castillonu, u vlasništvu porodice von Neipperg, poznato po vinima koja spajaju bogatstvo, strukturu i odličan odnos kvaliteta i cijene. Berba 2023 odražava moderan i uglađen stil, najčešće zasnovan na sorti Merlot uz dodatak Cabernet Franca.

U čaši se pokazuje duboka rubin crvena boja sa ljubičastim odsjajem. Na nosu je izražajno i privlačno, sa aromama zrele šljive, kupine i crne trešnje, uz note začina, sladića i blagih tonova moke. Na nepcu je srednjeg do punog tijela, sa zrelim, mekanim taninima i svježom kisjelinom; voće je bogato i jasno izraženo, a završnica glatka i strukturirana, sa nijansama kakaa, začina i diskretne mineralnosti.

92 - 93 points - James Suckling

Château d'Aiguilhe is one of the leading estates of Castillon, owned by the von Neipperg family, known for elevating the appellation with wines that combine richness, structure, and value. The 2023 vintage reflects a modern, polished style, typically based on Merlot with a supporting proportion of Cabernet Franc.

In the glass, it shows a deep ruby colour with violet reflections. The nose is expressive and inviting, with aromas of ripe plum, blackberry, and black cherry, complemented by notes of spice, liquorice, and a touch of mocha. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with ripe, supple tannins and fresh acidity; the fruit is generous and well-defined, leading to a smooth, structured finish with hints of cocoa, spice, and subtle minerality.
