WINE DESCRIPTION
Château du Rêve's Prestige Cuvée is an emblematic representation of Bordeaux's quintessential reds. Nestled in the heart of the region's celebrated vineyards, this wine is meticulously crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Each varietal, carefully selected from the estate's best parcels, brings forth a distinct character, harmoniously merging to create a wine of depth, elegance, and complexity. Traditional vinification techniques, paired with aging in hand-selected French oak barrels, highlight the intrinsic qualities of these two noble grapes.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Pouring the wine reveals a deep garnet hue, shimmering with promise.The aroma is enticing, a melodious dance of blackberries, cassis, and red cherries, all subtly underpinned by hints of tobacco, vanilla, and a whisper of forest floor. On the palate, the Cabernet Sauvignon's structured backbone gracefully supports the plush, juicy character of Merlot, leading to flavors of dark plum, black tea, and a touch of spice. The tannins are beautifully integrated, suggesting a wine with significant cellaring potential. Its lingering finish echoes notes of ripe fruit and a touch of cedar. A classic Bordeaux blend, Château du Rêve's Prestige Cuvée pairs wonderfully with rich dishes like beef bourguignon, grilled lamb chops, or a decadent cheese platter.
