Château Croizet-Bages Pauillac Grand Cru Classé AOC

The origin of the name Château Croizet-Bages dates back to the seventeenth century when the Croizet brothers, emblematic dynasty of the Médoc landscape, founded this estate in the heart of the Pauillac appellation.
In the heart of the Médoc Regional Natural Park is the vineyard of Château Croizet-Bages, already planted with vines during the imperial classification of 1855.

Pauillacais in essence, the wines of Château Croizet-Bages are solar and generous.
To perfect the most delicate blends, Merlot, harvested relatively early, brings roundness to the great wine. The petit verdot, present in a tiny quantity, gives all its colorful passion to the wine. The backbone of the great wine, Cabernet Sauvignon brings an aromatic power all in length that will be revealed after a few years of ageing.
Aged from 12 to 14 months in French oak barrels, the wines are fine and velvety in texture.
