Cote de Castillon is located just east of
St-Émilion and south of
Fronsac. The region is
Merlot-based like its surrounding neighbors and produces great value wines. Wines of Castillon may not have the depth and elegance of a
Pomerol, but they are delicious & affordable, allowing consumers to enjoy the right-bank of Bordeaux and a friendly price. These wines also have the additional benefit of being approachable when young, though some producers are creating wines that will age well and improve with a few years in the bottle.
