Description

Chateau de Rochemorin Rouge is an elegant red wine produced by the Chateau de Rochemorin estate, located in the renowned Bordeaux region of France. This wine is a fine example of the Bordeaux winemaking tradition, characterized by its aromatic complexity, structure and aging capacity.

Produced primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes, Chateau de Rochemorin Rouge reflects the perfect balance between power and finesse, two distinctive characteristics of Bordeaux red wines. The winemaking is careful and respectful of traditions, while the aging in French oak barriques gives the wine slightly toasted and spicy notes, which integrate harmoniously with the aromas of ripe red fruit and a light touch of vegetal typical of Cabernet Sauvignon.

At sight, the wine has a deep ruby red color, with garnet nuances that intensify with aging. On the nose, Chateau de Rochemorin Rouge offers a broad bouquet of aromas, where notes of berries, plums, cedar, vanilla and chocolate stand out, enriched by a subtle herbaceous accent.

In the mouth, the wine is balanced and has a solid but elegant tannic structure, with an acidity that guarantees freshness and longevity. The flavors of red fruit blend with the more evolved ones of spices and wood, leading to a long and persistent finish.

Ideal in combination with red meats, game, dishes rich in flavors and mature cheeses, Chateau de Rochemorin Rouge is a wine that best expresses the qualities of the Bordeaux terroir, demonstrating how tradition and innovation can coexist to produce wines of high quality.

Winery history

The origins of the estate date back to the 16th–17th centuries, with vineyard plantings in the Martillac area; in the 18th century the property was linked to the family of Charles-Louis de Secondat, Baron de Montesquieu. After periods of decline in the 20th century, the estate was purchased and revitalized by André Lurton in 1973, who restructured the vineyards and relaunched production under the Vignobles Famille André Lurton label.

Production philosophy

The winery highlights the diversity of terroirs and varietal expression: for whites it prioritizes the expressiveness of Sauvignon with carefully controlled ageing, while for reds it seeks the elegance and structure typical of Graves/Pessac-Léognan. The estate's modern image reflects a contemporary approach to winemaking, also oriented toward fine dining.

Terroir and vineyards

Located in the commune of Martillac, the estate sits on south-facing gravelly slopes. The building features modern architecture, and the vineyard comprises parcels on gravelly soils with a clay subsoil and sandy soils for the white grapes.
