The 2023 Château Grand Village Rouge is defined by a supple, layered architecture that favors balance over raw power. A blend of 91% Merlot and 9% Bouchet, it features a fleshy mid-palate and powdery tannins, offering more depth and core-density than previous vintages. The feel is classic and focused, anchored by a persistent saline grip and a mineral tension that provides a structured, serious finish.
