Château Larmande Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé (red) - AOC SAINT EMILION GRAND CRU

Château Larmande is one of Saint Emilion's oldest estates.

Today, the work carried out on this vineyard and in its cellars is done  with precision and delicacy. So much attention is paid to preserving the aromas of the fruit, obtaining a round wine on the palate and preserving all the elegance of the terroir.

This straightforward, elegant, floral wine develops spicy notes on the nose and palate, supported by red fruit and fine tannins. Balance dominates, and a fine acidity underpins its freshness.
