CHATEAU DU TOUGINAS 2005

Description
Wine Style:  Dry Red

A super claret from the commune of Coirac and Gornac in the heart of the Entre Deux Mers. Chateau du Touginas is owned by the Guilhon family who are third generation wine makers.  The vineyard of 20 acres, consists of clay and limestone and the vines have an average of 30 years. 

This is a lovely little wine, dark ruby in colour and is silky smooth.  It has the flavours of lusciously ripe fruits with notes of prune, and spices. It is well-balanced in the mouth thanks to the right proportion of half Merlot/half Cabernet Sauvignon with seductive tannins and a long aromatic finish.

Chateau du Touginas will pair well with steaks and grilled meats as well as casseroles and stews, lasagnes and rich oriental dishes.
