Viniou Reviews

Château Olivier 2006 is a distinguished red wine from the Pessac-Léognan appellation in the Graves subregion of Bordeaux, France. This Grand Cru wine embodies the rich tradition of Bordeaux with a meticulous blend, showcasing the unique terroir composed of gravel and clay soils that contribute to its complexity. The 2006 vintage benefited from a moderate climate, allowing the grapes to develop balanced acidity and ripe tannins. Château Olivier, with its storied past dating back to the Middle Ages, is renowned for its dedication to quality and traditional winemaking techniques, cementing its place in the pantheon of esteemed Bordeaux estates.

For pairing, this elegant wine complements a range of rich and flavourful dishes. Try it with roasted lamb or duck breast to highlight the wine's robust structure and deep flavours. Classic Bordeaux fare, such as entrecôte à la bordelaise or a hearty cassoulet, will also pair beautifully. For a taste of the region, consider serving it alongside local cheeses like a mature Médoc or a creamy Rocamadour, enhancing the wine's earthy and fruity notes.

To fully appreciate Château Olivier 2006, decant it for about an hour to allow its aromas to unfold gracefully. Serve it at a temperature of around 16-18°C (60-64°F). Begin your tasting experience by observing its deep garnet colour, then gently swirl the glass to release the wine's bouquet, which often features aromas of dark fruit, tobacco, and a hint of spice. On the palate, savour the harmonious blend of fruit, oak, and refined tannins with a long, satisfying finish.
