Comment

The first traces of the Château d'Eyran dates back to 1317. Reconstructed on the Graveleuse coast of Mont d'Eyran, he entered the Seze family in 1796 which still owned it today. Since 1980, the management of the vineyard has been provided by Stéphane and Brigitte Savigneux joined in 2015 by their son Charles. Registered in a thoughtful approach of environmental quality, the 25 hectare vineyard is carried out with a CAP: respect for the terroir. Built in 2017, its modern cellar composed of traditional materials subtly combines functionality and aesthetics and offers the wines of the Eyran castle an exceptional setting.

Tasting

This wine develops aromas of ripe red and black fruits, embellished with spicy and smoked subtle notes due to barrel breeding. The mouth reveals balance, power and a velvety touch. Beautiful aromatic persistence in the final.
