Viniou Reviews

The 2016 Grand Roc Puisseguin-Saint-Émilion is a captivating red wine from the Bordeaux region in France, particularly the Libournais sub-region. Nestled in the prestigious appellation of Puisseguin-Saint-Émilion, this wine typically showcases the rich, velvety characteristics of Merlot, often complemented by Cabernet Franc. The 2016 vintage benefits from a well-balanced climate that favored the development of rich fruit profiles and elegant tannins. In Bordeaux, the combination of clay and limestone soils provides excellent drainage, contributing to the complexity and depth of wines from this area. The Grand Roc estate, with its storied history and dedication to quality, consistently produces wines that embody the finesse of the Saint-Émilion region.

For food pairings, the robust profile of this wine makes it a perfect companion to dishes such as roasted lamb or duck confit. Its smooth tannins and refined structure harmonize beautifully with a mushroom risotto or a hearty beef stew. Regional French cuisine, like a classic coq au vin, would also align splendidly, accentuating the wine's inherent elegance and complexity.

When it comes to tasting this wine, it is best served at a temperature between 16°C and 18°C. Decanting for about an hour prior to serving will allow the wine to open up, revealing its intricate bouquet and nuanced flavors. Begin your tasting experience by observing the wine's deep ruby color. Next, take in the aromas, noting hints of ripe blackberry, plum, and subtle oak. On the palate, expect a harmonious blend of fruit and spice, with a lingering, elegant finish.
