Clos de l'Oratoire Grand Cru Classé AC Saint-Émilion

The Clos de l'Oratoire 2019 from Saint-Émilion stands deep purple in the glass and combines density with freshness. On the nose, black fruits and cherries appear, plus violets, earthy notes, and a fine hint of licorice.

The winery is classified as a Grand Cru Classé and has been managed by Stephan von Neipperg since the 2012 classification. The cuvée consists of about 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc and was aged for a long time in new barriques. This is where the depth and substance come from, without the wine appearing heavy.

On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, juicy, and smooth. The tannins appear powdery and soft, the acidity remains lively, and a mineral tension extends into the finish. Serve it at 16–18 °C, preferably with beef, lamb, game, or duck. Mushroom dishes, pasta, and Asian specialties also find a good partner in it.
