Soutard Red 2019 A Grand Crus From St Emilion Grand Cru

The SOUTARD wine, a tribute to traditional winemaking

The SOUTARD wine is produced by Château Ripeau, known for its traditional and reasoned farming methods. Practices such as pruning and bud removal are carried out early on, thinning is adapted to each vine, and leaf removal is done as early as possible to allow for better grape maturation.

Thus, the SOUTARD wine is a tribute to traditional winemaking, where quality and respect for nature are at the heart of production. Manual harvesting in 10 kg crates, with selective sorting in the vineyard and cellar, allows for the production of superior quality grapes.

A meticulous ageing process in French oak barrels

The SOUTARD wine is aged in French oak barrels from eight different cooperages. This ageing period lasts an average of 18 months, allowing the wines to develop their aromatic complexity while maintaining balance and structure.

The result is a wine of great finesse, born from traditional expertise combined with modern winemaking techniques. SOUTARD wines are renowned for their elegance, power, and aromatic complexity.

The expertise of Château Ripeau for exceptional wines

All in all, Château Ripeau produces superior quality wines, from a respected terroir and traditional know-how. The SOUTARD wine is the fruit of this attention to detail and quality, for the greatest pleasure of wine lovers.

To taste a SOUTARD wine is to discover a story, a respected winemaking tradition, a preserved terroir, and exceptional expertise. It’s a unique and delicious experience, where each sip reveals a palette of subtle and delicate aromas.
