This red wine is primarily a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, carefully selected and vinified to showcase the unique terroir of the Aiguilhe vineyards. Comtes von Neipperg, a winery steeped in history and renowned for its commitment to excellence, crafts wines that express the soul of Bordeaux. The 2019 vintage, like those before it, has been created to be an experience. With a beautiful ruby hue, this wine immediately captivates the senses. On the nose, expect an inviting bouquet of ripe blackberries, juicy plums, and a hint of spice that dances on the palate. The wine has a good medium body.

With an alcohol percentage of 14.5%, it provides warmth and depth without being overwhelming. Serve this wine at a temperature of around 18°C (64°F) to fully appreciate its aromatic profile and flavor nuances. Decanting for about 30 minutes will allow the wine to open up, softening the tannins and enhancing the overall experience. The Seigneurs d'Aiguilhe is a food-friendly wine that pairs exceptionally well with a variety of dishes. It's an ideal partner for roasted meats, such as lamb or beef, where its fruit-forward character complements the savory flavors. For those who prefer lighter fare, it shines alongside grilled vegetables, particularly those with earthy undertones like mushrooms or eggplant. It can be drunk with cheese and charcuterie to finish. This red wine is a journey in a glass, an invitation to discover the essence of Bordeaux through the lens of Comtes von Neipperg's expertise. Every sip tells a story of tradition, passion, and a relentless pursuit of perfection. It's a testament to the artistry of winemaking, a symphony of flavors that lingers long after the last drop has been savored.
