WINE DESCRIPTION

Château Haut-Bages Averous is a renowned producer of Pauillac wines, located in the Bordeaux region of France. The vineyard is situated on a gravelly soil, which is ideal for growing Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc grapes. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including hand-harvesting and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is a classic Pauillac, with a deep ruby color, complex aromas of black fruit, tobacco, and cedar, and a full-bodied, tannic structure. It is a wine that can be enjoyed now or aged for several years to come, making it a great addition to any wine collection.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Château Haut-Bages Averous Pauillac is an attractive, complex, and well-structured wine.On the nose, aromas of cassis and blackberry are complemented by a hint of cedar. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and well-balanced, with a firm tannic backbone and a long finish with notes of leather, tobacco, and earth. Overall, this is a very well-made and enjoyable wine that pairs nicely with grilled meats, game and hard cheeses.
