Chateau Picard

Cru Bourgeois Saint Estephe

Chateau Picard, in the heart of the village of Saint-Estephe, was classified Cru Bourgeois in 1932 and has always been considered one of the best in the appellation. Since the acquisition of Chateau Picard, Mahler-Besse, who has renovated the cellars in the style of Napoleon III, has equipped the estate with a powerful wine-making tool, with gravitation-feed of the harvest. Its exceptional soil with a resemblance to clay, a characteristic of Saint-Estephe, produces soil loaded with remains calcified with shells and sea urchins. This vineyard with a high percentage of cabernet sauvignon produces wines that are delicately smoky and spicy. (15% Merlot, 85% Cabernet Sauvignon)
