La Clef de Voute St Emilion Grand Cru

Gaëtan Moreau has headed the 2.27-hectare Château La Voûte wine estate since 1993, with the estate undergoing a major transformation in 2013. The merlot vines that produce the vineyard’s Saint-Émilion Grand Cru wines flourish on a site of superb quality adjoining prestigious vineyards like Châteaux Faugères, Fleur Cardinale, Pressac (Grands Crus Classés) and Valandraud (1er Grand Cru Classé). The result? Wines distinguished by their elegance, typicity, racy nature and sheer drinking pleasure.

Medium to deep garnet-purple coloured, the 2018 La Voute delivers notes of chargrill, tar and black soil over a core of blackberries and red and black plums. The palate is medium to full-bodied with firm, ripe tannins and a compelling racy line lifting the intense red and black fruits, leading to a long finish.
