Chateau Grand Rouge is the beautiful result of meticulous winemaking. We carefully select the finest Cabernet Sauvignon & Cabernet Franc grapes from our top vineyard properties. These grapes are handpicked to ensure the highest quality & the wine is aged in American Oak barrels, allowing it to develop its exquisite complexity and character. The blending process is artfully conducted to achieve the perfect balance, resulting in a wine that improves year after year and can age for over 10 years in the cellar.
