Tasting notes

The Chateau Maison Noble St Martin is light red in color with very strong purple hues. The nose is layered and complex with notes of crushed strawberries, vanilla and slightly spicy. The palate is concentrated and smooth, with powerful ripe tannins. This is rich yet fruity wine, with nice freshness at the finish. Very food friendly with a wide variety of cuisines.

Vinification

Chateau Maison Noble St Martin is produced in the Saint Martin du Puy area of Bordeaux. The vines are an average of 25 years old and grown in limestone and clay soils. After harvest, traditional vinification takes place in stainless steel and concrete tanks equipped with thermo-regulation. Followed by full malolactic fermentation and a post-fermentation maceration. The final blend is then aged 30% in oak barrels, 70% in stainless steel tanks and concrete tanks.
