Join us for our next AWS tasting featuring wines from St. Émilion, one of Bordeaux’s most celebrated Right Bank regions.
St. Émilion is best known for blends led by Merlot, often supported by Cabernet Franc. These wines tend to be plush and velvety, with flavors that lean toward black cherry, plum, and blackberry, plus classic Bordeaux notes like cocoa, cedar, graphite, and gentle earthiness. Depending on the producer and vintage, you might also catch hints of violet, tobacco, or baking spice. They’re structured but approachable—serious enough to talk about, and friendly enough to simply enjoy.
We’ll taste through a curated lineup and share a little about what makes St. Émilion unique—from its hillside vineyards to the way those Merlot-forward blends show up on the palate.
