The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine At Ventealapropriété, we have always liked to introduce you to vintages that have reached their peak of maturity. (Re)discover today the "2016", one of the greatest vintages of the decade! 

At its inception, the 2016 vintage was already described as grandiose. A few years later, having reached a beautiful evolution, it displays a high class character, destined for long aging.

This vintage required patience and kept the suspense until the end before revealing its magnificence! A vintage of elegance and balance, with ripe tannins and fresh and dynamic textures.
Wine The 2016 Red Saint-Julien is a model of its appellation. Carried by very beautiful cabernets, it releases fresh flavors of fruit which is inscribed in a refined and delicate palate. A model of measure and classicism, this very complete 2016 will go far; firm without excess in its tannin, it confirms all its promises. A great bottle to discover now after an hour in the decanter or to keep for another 5 to 6 years.
