    2020 Chateau Lestevenie Rouge (Bergerac, FR) 5R

    5R

    Medium-bodied wines with more structure and a mouth-feel similar to whole milk

    2020 Chateau Lestevenie Rouge (Bergerac, FR) 5R

    This wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, aged for a year in French oak barrels. It has aromas of ripe black fruit with a touch of oak. The flavor is well-balanced with smooth tannins, resulting in a full-bodied profile. It pairs wonderfully with red meats and chocolate or can be enjoyed on its own by the fireplace. Serve at room temperature.

    About The Varietal

    Bordeaux Blend

    A red Bordeaux blend primarily consists of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, supplemented by smaller amounts of Malbec and Petit Verdot, with Carmenere occasionally included. While the term naturally applies to red wines from Bordeaux, it is also suitable for wines produced beyond the region, such as those from California, Washington, Argentina, and other locations.

    About The Producer

    Chateau Lestevenie

    Petrie and Jaco, both hailing from South Africa, attended Stellenbosch University in the heart of the Western Cape winelands. Although their educational paths could have led to an early meeting, they only crossed paths two decades later, with Petrie living in San Francisco and Jaco in London, pursuing careers in accounting and embryology, respectively. Fate brought them together virtually, and after over a year of trying to meet, they finally connected in New York. They often discussed second careers and their shared "farm boy upbringing," fostering a mutual interest in purchasing land in southern France. In February 2022, they discovered their beautiful estate and embarked on their new venture: crafting delicious wines!
