Cépages: 85% Merlot - 10% Cabernet Franc - 5% Cabernet Sauvignon

92 Points Wine Enthusiast:"The wine's fulsome black fruits are packed with tannins and a spicy, smoky character. This is a solid wine, with a good future. Drink from 2025"

Tasting Notes: Intense color, ruby reflections and shiny. Black fruits, warm cedar, hints of black licorice, mocha notes on the nose. Palate is medium bodied, with a punch of dark fruit laced with hints of vanilla and accented by pepper, spice and mocha notes.  Authenticity of the terroir shows through the tannic structure and fruitiness of the wine. The nature of the sandy-gravelly soil acts as a flavor enhancer and is found in the minerality of this wine. Coming from the right bank, it's a blend of mostly Merlot, with a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.

From The Winery: The vines of Chateau German were planted during the 18th century on the terrace of Castillonais, adjoining the land of Saint-Émilion and produce a red wine typical of the appellation Castillon Cotes de Bordeaux.
