Château d’Arsac 2021
Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel
AOC Margaux
BLEND:
72% Cabernet Sauvignon – 28% Merlot
TASTING NOTES:
The color is an intense, dark, and deep black.
The nose is fresh, with notes of blackcurrant and white pepper, supported by mocha oak.
The palate is elegant and straightforward. The attack is fresh. Lots of roundness and, above all, a finish that surprises with its length. Aromatic return of fruit and brioche-like oak.

2021, a Cool and Humid Vintage...
The 2021 vintage is another year affected by frost. Arsac recorded 6 nights with
negative temperatures between April 5 and May 3.
Following these climatic events, varying damage was observed across the plots, with very low losses
in the highest quality areas that were protected from frost, thus allowing for a good harvest potential
but impacting our volumes from the beginning of the season.
Flowering (from May 28 to June 4) nevertheless benefited from a climatic lull with particularly
favorable conditions: wind, sun, and heat were present.
The good climatic conditions in August and September allowed for a slow refinement of
phenolic ripeness. Nevertheless, a cool summer delayed and extended veraison (from July 27 to August 27) and sugar concentrations in
the grapes were quite low compared to recent vintages.
