Château La Croix Saint Georges is like cashmere. Imagine a soft cocoon, a caress that enrobes the mouth with velvety tannins. There are aromas of sweet, ripe stewed plum and compote-like black fruits, heightened by a touch of fresh tapenade on the finish, a saline note coming from the wine’s lively freshness. Vinification is precise and delicate: the berries are not trampled or crushed before being transferred into oak vats. Everything happens using gravity, as Jean Philippe Janoueix works his Pomerols with grace and care, firmly committed to obtaining perfect balance.
