Château Paradis Casseuil
Presentation
Château Paradis Casseuil wines are characterised by fresh, fruity flavours and floral aromas. It can be enjoyed while still young.
The vintage
The 2013 vintage in Bordeaux was characterized by difficult weather conditions. A wet spring resulted in flower abortion and uneven grape size. Hail storms caused losses in the Entre-Deux-Mers region, and there were alternating spells of rain and fine weather until the harvests. The challenge to produce a good quality harvest put our technicians' vigilance to the test this year, and yields proved to be very low, the lowest since the frost in 1991!
Tasting
Colour: Beautiful, very deep crimson colour.
Nose: Elegant and expressive, blending aromas of blackcurrant and Morello cherries with well-integrated, delicate woody (vanilla) notes.
Palate: This is a powerful, well-structured wine, with a pleasant sweetness on the attack, evolving with firm tannins and a long spicy finish.
