Chateau Chauvin Saint Émilion Grand Cru 1999
/ #46892311
Chateau Chauvin is located in the northwestern part of Saint-Émilion and has held Grand Cru status for many decades. The castle works classically with the area's traditional grape composition, where Merlot dominates and is complemented by Cabernet Franc and a smaller proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon. The wines from here are often characterized by having a generous fruit and a distinctive but balanced structure.
1999 was a relatively cool year in Bordeaux, which has typically produced wines with freshness, moderate tannins and good drinking maturity today. Chateau Chauvin generally focuses on elegance rather than power, and in this vintage this is expressed in a certain lightness and complexity, which has especially developed through many years of bottle aging.
