    Château d’Aiguilhe 2016 brings the characterful, structured side of Bordeaux to the glass. The red wine comes from the Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux appellation and combines power with good accessibility. Château d’Aiguilhe stands for a Bordeaux red wine that focuses not only on concentration, but also on clear fruit and a balanced mouthfeel. The style of the estate is also described in younger vintages as fruit-forward yet firmly structured. everythingwine.ca

    On the palate, dark plum and black cherry reveal themselves, accompanied by fine hints of pencil lead and savory herbs. Firm tannins give the wine structure without feeling harsh. It is precisely this combination of ripe dark fruit, spicy depth, and precise structure that makes the 2016 vintage a suitable choice for anyone seeking a Bordeaux with character. Open it slightly below room temperature and give it time in the glass so that the multi-layered notes can better unfold.

    Its optimal drinking window lies approximately between 2024 and 2032. Serve it with roast beef, braised lamb shank, or rich mushroom dishes. This red wine also pairs particularly well with aged hard cheese, when the spicy depth of the dish picks up the dark fruit and firm tannins.

    LIFE BEFORE...

    Where possible, and especially with larger wine cellar purchases, the wine cellars of the previous owners tell us a lot about the storage conditions of the wines. A professionally managed wine cellar usually guarantees perfect storage conditions for the wines. We acquire our wines exclusively from reputable, mostly private wine collectors.

    HIDDEN FEATURES

    Many high-quality wines today feature various security features for authentication, such as markings that only become visible under UV light. We check and compare all purchased wines for these features using an extensive database, and if there is even the slightest doubt, we reject the wine.

    THE DETAILS MATTER

    We examine wine labels under a microscope to determine their quality, and we check the printed image for any peculiarities that are typical for a particular winery, wine, or vintage. We draw on a large image database to identify any anomalies.

    COLOR MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

    Last but not least, we also examine the wine's composition. Color, turbidity, sediment, and the bubbles in a champagne reveal a lot about the wine's or champagne's condition and potential drinking pleasure.
