Château Calet

AOC Blaye - Côtes de Bordeaux Red

Château Calet was taken over a few years ago by the Bayle-Carreau family, who replanted the entire vineyard. The owners have poured all their know-how and passion into making Château Calet one of the rising stars of the AOC Blaye-Côtes de Bordeaux. The vines yield a supple, fine wine characterised by the Merlot – which makes up 90% – as expressed in its roundness and fruity elegance.

    VINTAGE 2015

    TASTING NOTES

    The result of a legendary vintage, this wine has a splendid Bordeaux colour, with purple tints. It opens with an elegant and expressive bouquet still dominated by fresh fruits, aromas of cherry, blackcurrant and plums. On the palate, one can find with pleasure an unctuous, structure balanced by fine and lingering tannins without any harshness. A wine for pleasure.

    VINTAGE 2016

    TASTING NOTES

    The 2016 vintage of Château Calet is a beautiful, deep garnet hue with black and ruby tints, and a generous, elegant bouquet expressive of bilberry and spices. The palate of this rich and concentrated wine offers jammy fruit and refined, lingering tannins. A remarkable and already tantalising wine which holds plenty of promise for the future.
