Château La Bastidette

MONTAGNE ST EMILION

This cuvée is made from a very old plot of Merlot situated in the commune of Montagne-Saint-Emilion and is a wine that continues to complete our range at Château Moncets. Today it represents the purity of this single grape varietal and is from one of the most beautiful terroirs of the Right Bank.
