Château Haut Colombier Description

Château Haut Colombier is located in the Blaye – Côtes de Bordeaux appellation on the highest hill point of the area. The estate is owned and managed by two dynamic brothers - Olivier and Emmanuel Chéty, whose family has been making wine in the region since 1803. Both of these young men gained extensive winemaking experience in different regions of France and in Australia before returning to their family wine estate and investing that knowledge in their own vineyards.

They acquired this estate in 1991 and have worked tirelessly in improving the quality of the wine. Their quest for quality and respect of the vines, the terroir, meteorological variations, and the influence of the moon, has led them to adopt sustainable agricultural and biodynamic practices to grow the purest grapes possible. If a vintage is not deemed to be of their standards of quality, they will not make a wine. The name Colombier is the Dove House that is located on the property.

Organic practices are applied in the vineyard with no use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides. Minimum intervention in the vineyard and cellar. All grapes are hand harvested. Use of indigenous yeast. After the natural alcoholic fermentation, the wine is aged cement tanks, amphoras and French oak barrels.

Estate grown and bottled. Certified Organic and Vegan. Biodynamic practices. 4,000 cases produced annually.

This wine is an assembly of wonderful diverse terroirs of the Château mixing grape varieties of Merlot, Malbec, and Cabernet Franc for a fruity wine mixing the roasting aromas.

Blend: 59% Merlot, 28% Malbec, 13% Cabernet Franc

This has aromas of blackcurrants, mulberries, tomato leaves, mushrooms and chili chocolate. It’s fresh and balanced, with chewy tannins and a medium body. 59% merlot, 28% malbec and 13% cabernet franc. Savory finish. From organically grown grapes.
