Viniou Reviews

Château La Rousselière's 1983 Saint-Estèphe is a captivating blend sourced from the prestigious Médoc subregion in Bordeaux, renowned for its robust and age-worthy red wines. This vintage embodies the classic attributes of a great Bordeaux: complexity, depth, and structure, often featuring Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The terroir of Saint-Estèphe, with its gravelly soils and maritime climate, adds a distinct mineral touch and resilience to its wines, a testament to the vineyard's expertise. The region combines Atlantic influences with rich soils, fostering a mature and nuanced palate, reflecting both the historical tradition and esteemed reputation of Château La Rousselière.

To complement this storied wine, consider pairing it with robust dishes such as a classic beef Wellington or grilled lamb chops with rosemary. The wine's structure and tannins beautifully complement savoury, hearty flavours. For a regional touch, a rich duck confit with a side of sautéed mushrooms would resonate well, enhancing the wine's earthy undertones and highlighting its aging characteristics.

For optimal enjoyment, serve this wine at 16-18°C. Decant it for about an hour to let it breathe, releasing its intricate aromas. Begin your tasting by admiring the wine's deep garnet hue, indicating its maturity. Swirl the glass to release its aromas, noting scents of dark fruit and earthy tones. As you taste, explore the progression of flavours, appreciating the wine's balance and lengthy finish.
