Chateau Cherchy-Desqueryroux - Graves

This 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon hails from Graves, Bordeaux, France. Chateau Chercy-Desqueyroux was founded in 1750 by Mr. De Cherchy, a member of the Bordeaux parliament, and has been handed down through 6 generations of dedicated winemakers. It's the oldest estate in the village of Pujols-sur-Ciron! The owners are environmentally conscious, practicing sustainable farming and avoiding pesticides. The gravel and sand soils, covered with natural grass between rows, allow each grape to reach peak ripeness. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon offers lovely notes of oak, tobacco, earth, chocolate, and plum. It pairs perfectly with venison bourguignon or braised lamb shanks.

To enjoy this Chateau Cherchy-Desqueryroux Cabernet Sauvignon, first, let it breathe for about 30 minutes to an hour. Pour it into a wine glass and take in the rich aroma of oak, tobacco, and plum. When it comes to food pairing, venison bourguignon or braised lamb shanks are great choices as the flavors of the wine complement the richness of these dishes. Store the unopened bottle in a cool, dark place. Once opened, keep it in the refrigerator and consume within a few days to maintain its flavor. Avoid exposing the wine to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures as this can affect its quality.
