Château Chasse-Spleen

This renowned property was included in the new Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel classification in 2003, and rightly so as many think it worthy of Cru Classé status. It is always extremely popular with our En Primeur buyers as it provides terrific drinking at a relatively sensible price. Produced from a yield of 50hl/ha, this is a lovely wine.

Deep purple in colour, aromas of super ripe cassis and fresh damson. The palate is impressive, structured and powerful, voluptuous in texture with cassis and black olive notes, tightly knit, suave tannins and a succulent chewiness on the finish. An impressive Chasse Spleen this vintage.

Enjoy with sticky spiced lamb shanks and mustard mash!

The yield in 2022 was 34hl/ha. The vinification is carried out in stainless steel thermoregulated tanks and cement or resin-coated epoxy . Aged for 18 months in 40% new oak barrels.
