Presentation
Located on a slope facing due south, Château Goumin has a splendid terroir. Grown on clay-limestone soil, the vines produce red wines with the Bordeaux appellation. These are pleasant and have a velvety texture. Then can be enjoyed young, but also age very well.
The vintage
2021 was marked by very capricious weather. There was a lot of rain in the spring. An episode of frost at the beginning of April caused major damage. The summer was very mild, with no extreme heat. At the end of August, fine weather set in, with high temperatures during the day and cool nights: ideal conditions for ripening the grapes. These last few weeks were crucial to the success of this vintage.

Tasting
Red colour, medium intensity.
Very expressive, the nose reveals delicate fruity notes, full of delicacy. Subtle aromas of vanilla and a hint of biscuit complete the picture.
On the palate, the wine is light and easy to drink, with a discreet tannic structure that makes it particularly easy to digest. The whole is well-balanced and harmonious.
