Château de Parenchère Bordeaux Supérieur 2021
W I N E D E S C R I P T I O N
The Château de Parenchère Bordeaux Supérieur is the classic cuvée of the estate. Sourced from
25 year old vines, the tannic structure is present yet very soft while the red fruit aromas remain
pleasantly intense. This wine is made by and for Bordeaux lovers.
T A S T I N G N O T E S
An intense ruby color, the Château de Parenchère Bordeaux Supérieur is full and fleshy with a
strong underlying structure. It displays intense red fruit aromas of cassis and black cherry with
elegantly soft tannins. There is a great balance between the ripe fruit expression and the wine’s
freshness.
F O O D P A I R I N G
Perfect with grilled tenderloin and garlic potatoes.
