Château La Garde Pessac-Léognan rouge 2022 0,75l

Château La Garde is located in Martillac at the heart of the Pessac-Léognan appellation and is owned by the Dourthe group. Its vineyards form a mosaic of some 27 distinct soil units, including a prominent gravel plateau and later-ripening sandy-clay parcels. The red blend is built on Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with other classic Bordeaux varieties in support. The bouquet offers cassis, dark cherry and plum with smoky undertones, graphite and herbal spice. On the palate Château La Garde is powerful and firmly structured, with ripe tannins, lively acidity and a long, mineral Pessac-Léognan finish.

Château La Garde

Set among the gravel ridges and pine‑fringed clearings of Pessac‑Léognan, Château La Garde carries nearly three centuries of Bordeaux heritage. An 18th‑century chartreuse anchors the place, yet the modern chapter began in 1990 when Dourthe acquired the estate and reshaped vineyards and cellars with a focus on precision rather than show....
