Château Tauzinat L'Hermitage owes its name to the tauzin oaks, once used to make barrels. These trees still line the vineyards today, bearing witness to the region's winegrowing history and tradition.
The Château Tauzinat l'Hermitage benefits from an exceptional terroir, typical of the Saint-Émilion region. The soil is mainly composed of clay and limestone, offering excellent drainage capacity and favoring optimal ripening of the grapes.
The vineyard covers an area of 9 hectares, with a majority of Merlot grapes, complemented by Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Vinification is a carefully controlled process. The grapes are harvested by hand, meticulously sorted, then vinified in temperature-controlled vats to ensure optimal fermentation. The wines of Château Tauzinat l'Hermitage are renowned for their elegance and depth. Merlot, dominant in the blend, brings aromas of red and black fruits, while Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon add structure and finesse. On the palate, the wines are distinguished by their balance, silky tannins and long finish.
A CHARMING, AROMATICALLY COMPLEX WINE
A balanced wine shaped by a contrasting climate. A harmonious marriage of satiny tannins and delicious freshness. A family estate for 70 years.
On the heights of Saint-Emilion, Tauzinat l'Hermitage nestles in rolling, wooded countryside.
The tauzin oaks that have always lined the vines are the source of its name.
