Guard
As it ages, it develops notes of candied or dried fruit: apricot, fig, mandarin, as well as a slight toasted note brought on by barrel ageing. Even after several years, it will retain all its charm and richness.
Food and wine pairing
Enjoy as an aperitif, with goat's cheese tart or oven-roasted chicken leg...
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2021) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
Patrick Carteyron is one of the leaders of the gigantic Bordeaux appellation. He has made his Château Penin a benchmark in various appellations, colors and cuvées. The family estate has grown from 13 hectares in 1854 to 40 hectares today. The reds, and particularly the fine cuvées, les-cailloux and grande-sélection, are produced on Quaternary stony terroir, the noblest on the estate. The more common sandy and clay terroirs are reserved for the production of delicious rosés and clairets. Year after year, clairet remains the benchmark for this appellation. Here you'll find a wide range of wines at all price points, all focused on fruit, tannin quality and freshness, with a charming, generous white and rosé, and the famous clairet, as we've said, with its ever-brightening fruit, that has made the domaine's reputation. The reds are richly fruity and flattering, including the ever-energetic cuvée grande-sélection.

About the domain :
One of the region's best-known appellations, with several Favorites to its credit. A 50-hectare cru established on a gravelly terroir on the left bank of the Dordogne, opposite Saint-Émilion. Founded by the Carteyron family in 1855, it has been run since 1982 by Patrick, an oenologist.

Domaine noté (guide 2023) Sélectionné (We remind you that this guide is a prize list and as such, all the estates that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).
About the domain :
Classified HVE3, this cru is one of the finest references in Bordeaux and Bordeaux Supérieur. Penin is refining its range, moving closer to the limestone and gravel soils, while retaining the finesse of fruit that appeals to the widest possible audience. Under the Natur' label, the estate produces a rosé, a clairet and a red, and is somewhat shaking up the codes of classic Bordeaux.
