Description

Château Saint-Georges 1981 – Saint-Georges-Saint-Émilion

The 1981 Château Saint-Georges comes from the Saint-Georges-Saint-Émilion appellation, one of the most prestigious satellites of Saint-Émilion, renowned for its clay-limestone slopes. The vineyard, dominated by Merlot and complemented by Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, produces wines of elegance and generosity.

The 1981 vintage, modest yet balanced, yielded wines that have aged gracefully when sourced from well-situated terroirs. This cuvée now reveals a garnet robe with evolved hues, and a delicate bouquet of candied black fruits, blond tobacco, leather, and gentle spices. On the palate, it is supple and harmonious, with softened tannins and a persistent, nuanced finish.

The 1981 Château Saint-Georges reflects the discreet charm of traditional Right Bank wines, marked by refinement and authenticity.
