About
Le Carillon de Rouget 2020 is the second wine of Château Rouget, crafted with the same care and precision as the Grand Vin. Coming from the prestigious appellation of Pomerol on Bordeaux’s Right Bank, this Merlot-dominant blend embodies elegance, ripe fruit, and refined structure. The 2020 vintage brings exceptional balance and ripeness, offering immediate pleasure with the potential for short- to mid-term aging.
Tasting notes
Deep garnet in color with aromas of black cherry, plum, violet, and subtle toasted spice. The palate is supple and round, with silky tannins and a core of ripe red and black fruit. Hints of graphite, cocoa, and sweet tobacco lend complexity, while the finish is smooth, elegant, and persistent.
Pairing
An excellent match for roast lamb, duck breast, or mushroom risotto. The wine’s ripe fruit and velvety texture complement savory, earthy dishes, while its freshness ensures balance on the palate. Also excellent with aged cheeses or charcuterie.

Cabernet Franc
A single-varietal Cabernet Franc wine has medium body and exhibit graphite, green bell pepper and red licorice notes, with darker wines showing more cigar and leather flavors.
Pomerol
Pomerol is the smallest appellation in Bordeaux. It doesn’t use any classification systems - it's all democracy here. Houses like Petrus and Le Pin have truly earned their cult status in the wine world. Merlot is the dominant grape here. The soil is mostly gravel, some clay can only be found near the Saint Emilion region. Wines are rich, silky, with a dark, deep colour, nice acidity and tannins. The aroma is composed of juicy dark plums and cream. The best samples are made for long ageing.
Bordeaux
Bordeaux wines are considered to be the most prestige and renowned in the world. The region is mainly known for its dry red wines made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot grapes, and one can almost always find the word Château (French for „castle”) on Bordeaux wine labels. In order to understand the style of wine most desirable for your taste, it is recommended to try different samples from the Left as well as the Right Bank of The Gironde. Both banks differ not only with different soil, but also with the share of specific wines. There are several classifications in Bordeaux but the main one, introduced in 1855, hasn’t changed since and still impacts wine prices nowadays. A few years later, in 1936, an alternative classification system - Crus Bourgeois - was established. Bordeaux is known for a commerce praxis called en primeur - it means that a buyer can purchase wines immediately after harvest and prior to production for a substantially lower price, thus obtaining the opportunity to sell them for a larger profit later in the future. Bordeaux wines can be described as big, complex and with a strong character, but very friendly at the same time so that each and every wine lover could find something tasty and suitable for a great wine night.
