Its voluptuous, enveloping texture is reminiscent of blends in which Merlot predominates. An effect achieved through Cabernet Sauvignons at full maturity associated with ripe, but not overripe, Merlots creating a sense of opulence and smoothness in the mouth. The structure is beautifully soft, caressing the mouth with perfectly integrated tannins that melt on the finish to leave centre stage to exquisite red fruit once more.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlend of \u003cspan\u003e52% Merlo\u003c\/span\u003et, \u003cspan\u003e48% Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAged\u003cspan\u003e 14 months in French oak barriques - 50% of new\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJames Suckling |  92 Pts \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWine Enthusiast | 91 Pts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBettane \u0026amp; Desseauve | Prix Plaisir : Gold Medal\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #f0f0f0; padding: 16px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 16px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCellaring:  \u003c\/strong\u003eDrink now to 2039 \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #f0f0f0; padding: 16px; border-radius: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFood Pairing: \u003c\/strong\u003eDelicious with a\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003edry-aged ribeye with a red wine reduction, a rosemary-studded leg of lamb, or a hearty venison loin served with earthy root vegetables.

They have since become pioneers in green viticulture, earning 'Vignoble Responsable' certification in 1999 and becoming the first vineyard in Europe to be rated 'exemplary' for sustainability in 2010. The 35-hectare vineyard is planted on prime gravel soils with vines averaging 35 years of age. By maintaining a high-density approach of 10,000 vines per hectare, the team keeps yields naturally low, ensuring the final wine is packed with remarkable character and flavour intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.custom-html-container,\n.custom-html-container * {\n  background-color: transparent !important;\n  box-shadow: none !important;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Remove any inherited top margin *\/\n  \n}\n\n.custom-html-container {\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Ensure container has no top space *\/\n  padding-top: 0 !important;\n}\n\n.custom-html-container .global-button {\n  background-color: #35174D !important;\n  color: #ffffff !important;\n  border: 2px solid #35174D !important;\n  display: inline-flex;\n  padding: 25px 40px;\n  font-family: Futura, sans-serif;\n  font-size: 14px;\n  font-weight: 400;\n  line-height: 110%;\n  text-decoration: none;\n  cursor: pointer;\n  transition: background-color 0.3s ease, color 0.3s ease;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Explicitly remove top margin *\/\n}\n  \n.custom-html-container .global-button:hover {\n  background-color: #ffffff !important;\n  color: #35174D !important;\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: center;\" class=\"custom-html-container\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"global-button\" href=\"\/collections\/crus-bourgeois-bordeaux-red-wine-for-sale\"\u003eBrowse our Crus Bourgeois Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Chateau Larose Perganson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56257287651672,"sku":"114844","price":39.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/chateau-larose-perganson-haut-medoc-whelehans-wines-dublin-winestore.jpg?v=1774361948","url":"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/products\/2019-chateau-larose-perganson-haut-medoc","provider":"Whelehans Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
