The French Pairing

Chateau Laroque is famed for its 12th-century tower that overlooks the Saint-Emilion area. Found south of Saint-Christophe-des-Bardes, this renowned estate spans 61 hectares (151 acres) of limestone-based plateaus and terraces. Its distinguished lineage has seen several families leaving their mark, resulting in a charming site. Its second wine, Les Tours de Laroque, is known for its elegance, with aromas of cherry and plum, velvet texture, and a lively acidity. The vines here have a unique genetic legacy, and the soil is composed of clay and limestone, enriched with minerals.

Gitton Pere et Fils Sancerre is praised for its fruity spice, with characteristic notes of apples, citrus, and melon. It features a yeasty texture, mineral complexity, and ageing potential.
