Chateau Rouget Le Carillon de Rouget Pomerol 2019
The second wine of Château Rouget. The terroirs dedicated to Le Carillon de Rouget are slightly higher than the ones selected for Château Rouget. This, combined with the relative youth of the vines, compared to the ones of the Grand Vin, result in earlier ripening and give the wine its roundness and appealing character.
Vivino Rating: 4.3 (June 2025)
Blend: 85% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc
Taste
With a burst of cherry and blueberry flavors, the taste is rich and concentrated, with youthful tannins giving it a strong backbone. You'll pick up on layers of both red and black fruits like cherries and plums, with a nice touch of pencil shavings and woodiness at the end. Definitely a wine you'll want to decant or save for later sipping pleasure.
Producer
Château Rouget appears in archives and land register from 1700 and is considered as one of the first official Pomerol Crus. This period corresponds to the building date of the splendid house symbolizing the estate, belonging then to the Bayonne Family. The last family member involved in the estate, Pierre Bayonne, was also mayor of Pomerol during the First Empire. As a talented winemaker, he used Chateau Rouget as a perfect display for his skills.
