Chateau Teyssier St. Emilion Grand Cru

Grand Cru - Wine has been made at the estate since the 1700’s. At one stage in the nineteenth century it was the largest estate in the neighborhood. At the time of purchase however it had been reduced to just five hectares of depleted vineyard.  Since then a completely new team has transformed the wine and the estate. Renovation in every sense – estate, vineyard, winery, barrel cellar, and the fundamental approach to making wine means that Château Teyssier is widely regarded as a new-wave, modern-style wine from Saint Emilion. Most importantly the wine is now sought after by a loyal following. The blend is 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc. nextSection Wine Spectator: POINTS 86–89.Delivers a good, direct beam of blueberry and pomegranate notes, with a dash of toasted spice on the finish.
