Château Alcée - Côtes de Bordeaux Castillon - Rouge - 2023

Part of Nicolas Thienpont's prestigious portfolio, which also includes Château Pavie-Macquin, Château Alcée is one of our cherished favorites—an exceptional gem we love to share discreetly. For over a decade, this accomplished winemaker has cultivated this terroir on a limestone plateau, where the rock lies just beneath deep red clays.

This enchanting ten-hectare estate is treated with the care of a grand cru, extracting the maximum potential from this prime area, home to many renowned names. With a predominant 88% Merlot, it offers a seductive wine with notes of juicy black cherry. It's a remarkably successful wine, boasting a radiant yet balanced profile—round, ample, and flavorful. The vibrant finish, underpinned by the limestone foundation, beautifully concludes the tasting experience. This precision-crafted wine has earned high praise from our committee.
