Chapelle de Bages is the second wine of Château Haut-Bages Liberal.This wine takes advantage of all the tools and the know-how of a 5th Classified Growth. It is an elegant illustration of the property.

Today, the property is run by Claire Villars Lurton. She had undertaken a complete overhaul of the tool of winemaking and a new approach of the vine growing, with better respect of the environment.

VITICULTURE

Certified organic and biodynamic.The idea is to express the excellence of the terroir of Château Haut-Bages Liberal in its wines.

WINEMAKING

TASTING & FOOD PAIRINGS

The nose is very expressive and clear with aromas of red fruits and tobacco. On the palate, the fruit is juicy and the tannins are round. A few notes of minerality and a clean style.

A balance and a straight structure that make it a very pleasant wine to drink.
