Domaine de Saint Guirons, Pauillac 2015

Cabernet Sauvignon 60%

Cabernet Franc 5%

Domaine de Saint-Guirons belongs to Francois-Xavier Borie, proprietor of Château Grand-Puy Lacoste. Classified as a 5th growth, Château Grand-Puy Lacoste is widely recognized as one of the greatest wines of Pauillac. This appellation enjoys a longstanding and well deserved reputation as Bordeaux’s most fashionable and expensive address.

Domaine de Saint-Guirons is a limited bottling of Pauillac made by the same great winemaking team as Château Grand-Puy Lacoste. Moreover, it benefits from Borie’s meticulous attention to quality. The grapes for Domaine Saint-Guirons are a selection from the Puy Lacoste estate; and this is an special bottling that enjoys the same pedigree of fruit, exposition, and meticulous winemaking that goes into the production of Château Grand-Puy Lacoste and Lacoste-Borie.

Redolent with scents of blackberry, cassis, cedar and fresh tobacco – the classic “cigar box scent” of Pauillac resonate. The aromas follow through on the palate, offering plenty of concentration, flavor and purity in a medium-bodied and elegant expression of this terroir.
