Château Haut Piquat - Lussac-Saint Emilion - Rivière Family

2016: WINE ENTHUSIAST 89/100: "This estate, owned by the Rivière family, with its elegant château, has produced a ripe and spicy wine, full of structured tannins, with hints of blackcurrant and acidity. You can sense that this is a muscular wine, somewhat closed at the moment but will develop over time." 2015: WINE ENTHUSIAST 89/100: "A ripe merlot marks this generous and fruity wine. Structured with dense tannins and notes of juicy blackcurrant. The richness is moderate, complementing this ensemble of tannins." Gold Medal BRUXELLES 2020: "Deep color, garnet reflections. Ripe nose, earthy underbrush accents against a backdrop of stewed fruits. Palate: today at maturity, ample, generous with well-developed aromas. Qualities of balance and substance. The finish retains freshness." 2014: Silver Medal MACON 2017: Nice nose; Balanced; Good length; Integrated; Harmonious. 2012: Silver Medal MACON 2014 / WINE ENTHUSIAST 88/100 Situation: Located in the municipality of Lussac, northeast of Saint Emilion.
