Product Notes

Chateau La Croix Ferrandat Saint-Emilion wine is a sublime French blend hailing from the Saint-Emilion region of Bordeaux. Exhibiting a profound ruby hue, it bears hues of expressive blackcurrant, smoky oak and delicate spice notes. The wine offers a full-bodied and tannic profile, balanced with an elegant acidity that leads to a lingering finish. Its palate pleases with a melange of ripe dark fruit flavours, further enhanced by subtle nuances of cocoa and coffee, reflecting its ageing in oak barrels. Perfect for pairing with rich meat dishes, this sophisticated red is indeed a connoisseur's delight.
