Description
Château Berliquet is located in the Saint-Émilion appellation on the Right Bank of Bordeaux, France. The estate holds the classification of Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé. In 2017, the property was acquired by Chanel, integrating it into the company’s existing portfolio of wine estates. The vineyard spans approximately 10 hectares, situated on the limestone plateau and clay-limestone slopes near the village of Saint-Émilion.
Tasting notes
”Deep garnet-purple in color, it slowly unfurls in the glass to reveal a classic nose of ripe black plums, wild blueberries and pencil shavings with hints of unsmoked cigars, tilled soil and red roses. The medium to full-bodied palate is chock-full of blue and black fruit preserves, supported by plush tannins and impressive freshness, finishing long and mineral laced. Since the Chanel takeover and under Nicolas Audebert’s direction, the development of this site and the wine are truly impressive. The results reveal a top-tier Saint-Émilion in the making.”[93/100 Points, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, March 2021, robertparker.com]
