Château Barberousse IMPERIALE
AOC Saint-Émilion 6 litres

Grape varieties

Tasting notes
Beautiful, dense purple color. The nose reveals a bouquet of ripe red fruits accompanied by a slightly vanilla note. Very round palate with melted tannins
and toasted notes.
Food and wine pairing
Château Barberousse will go perfectly with a filet mignon of beef and a pan-fried porcini mushrooms, or a rabbit stew and potatoes sautéed with garlic and parsley, on all grilled meats or in sauce.
