Château Goubau

Ch. Goubau is a certified organic property, superbly situated at 100 metres above sea-level on the St Philippe d’Aiguilhe plateau, the highest point of the Bordeaux region. It was bought in December 2015 by Jacques and Fiona Thienpont of Le Pin, along with his sister and family.

With its lovely deep salmon colour  the wine is immediately attractive,  the nose does not disappoint: lots of zest and character and a  slight smoky note; reminiscent of wild roses and pata negra.  On the palate the wine is fresh and attractive with plenty of depth and body . The spicy end note is the perfect foil to the fruity mid-palate.  Chilled well this wine is perfect  for summer drinking - as an aperitif or with a summer barbeque!

Delicious, mineral freshness on the nose which gives way to aromas of autumn fruits, good oak flavours and spice. On the palate lots of ripe fruit – red  fruits and brambles with a good tannic structure , attractive, intense and persistent. Best served at about 18 -19oC  - decant an hour before serving. Lovely with red meats  and winter stews.
