Château Monestier La Tour, Grand Vin Rouge 2018, Bergerac AOC, France
A biodynamic property in the heart of Bergerac
Ecocert ORGANIC certification
The vineyards of Château Monestier La Tour lie in the heart of Périgord
Pourpre, the ‘Purple Périgord’. The undulating hillsides of this part of the
Dordogne are natural, unspoilt and steeped in history, with traces of
ancient châteaux and small medieval villages adding to their timeless
charm.
It was this privileged spot that the Scheufele family chose for their
winemaking venture, a setting completely in harmony with the environment.
This region is known for its commitment to sustainable viticulture, with
more developed organic and biodynamic vineyards than any other.

TASTING NOTES
The nose offers pleasant, delicate oaky notes, mingled with lovely scents of fresh red fruit. Engaging on the palate, with a juicy attack, the same red fruit as the nose in the mid-palate, with a redcurrant freshness, and subtle hints of oak and toast on the finish.
