Château Sanctus La Bienfaisance (no reserve) 2016

The wine

This Saint-Émilion is very appealing and gives a pleasing velvetiness on the palate. It should be kept for between four and fifteen years before drinking, depending on the vintage.

About the Producer Château Sanctus

This cuvée was made from a single parcel of Château de la Bienfaisance. This Saint-Emilion Grand Cru has got all the attributes of a garage wine, a very popular concept on the right bank of Bordeaux since the 2000s. Vines are planted on limestone soils. Sanctus is the fruit of a collaboration between Didier Peytour and Stéphane Derenoncourt. The wine is aged in barrels between 18 to 22 months, without racking.
