"A real explosion of flavors, with plenty of punch!"

Complex and expressive on the nose, Sang du Sanglier is bursting with black fruit, with notes of licorice and black pepper. Powerful on the attack, the palate is well-balanced, with firm, supple tannins. Sang du Sanglier is anything but wild! Rarely does one find such value for money.

About the estate:

Already the owner of an organic farm in Scotland, Julian Taylor purchased this estate in 2010, which is dominated by a 15th-century château built in the typical Périgord style. He reduced its size from 17 to less than 13 hectares, keeping only the best plots. In March 2019, he sold the property to American businessman Frank Campbell and his wife Riki.

Note and opinion by Mr. GILLES D. Published on 06/01/2025

Indulgence and finesse in a powerful, sappy style. Combining Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon in a skillfully executed aging process, Sang du Sanglier delivers a fleshy, vibrant juice to the palate, full of energy, blending dark flavors of plum, cherry, and blackberry softened by subtle toasted notes and dark chocolate that slip into a surprisingly fresh structure with tight, consistent tannins that are smooth and creamy. The dynamism and depth that emerge from it linger in a persistent finish with the intensity of ripe fruit. A cuvée for immediate enjoyment but also for aging. Slightly chilled, this Bergerac has what it takes to enhance an entire meal, from Landes salad to grilled duck breast with red fruit sauce. Rating = 4.2.
