Bought back in 1989, the Château Côte Montpezat is situated in Belvès de Castillon on the appellation of controlled origin Côtes de Castillon.

The legend tells that those who listen closely to the well of Château Côte Montpezat, can hear the pilgrims of Saint Jacques de Compostelle who, when crossing these lands used to drink here… The old quarters dating from the XVIIth century were used by pilgrims during their famous walk.

With only a tiny production of 2000 bottles this 50% Cabernet Franc and 50% Merlot is a delicious rosé with refreshing acidity. Made from direct pressing of the berries without maceration and low temperature to obtain a pale color, rose petal, and retain its freshness, while its fruit available each year from the month April.

It has a pale pink hue, with aromas of spices and marshmallow. The taste is fruity, supple, and balanced with a fresh, mineral finish. It pairs well with shellfish, fish, poultry, and vegetarian dishes.

Aging capabilities: 2024 - 2028
