Château du Pin

Claudette Constans’ 2017 has fruity aromas of ripe strawberries and blackcurrants. It is relatively light and easy-drinking with bitter cherry flavours and a grippy finish nevertheless, a style that in the past was referred to by some as “luncheon claret”. It is produced from 50% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Cabernet Franc. 46 hectares of vineyards are farmed by Claudette’s husband Jean-Marie and have been so by his family since 1880.
