Château Haut-Segottes
Château Haut-Segottes
From an exceptional 9 hectare plot that shares the same terroir as Grand Cru Classé A Château Chaval Blanc. The iron-rich red soil is unique in Saint-Émilion, helping the grapes fully ripen even in difficult years. The vines are farmed organically using biodynamic methods.
Fermentation is spontaneous in concrete vats, ageing for 12 months in oak. The palate evolves from sweet fruit to cedar and vanilla before returning to fruit for a very long finish.
