Château Roylland 2022

The richness and balance of a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru red wine

The estate

Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Château Roylland takes its name from "La Lande du Roy." Established in the time of Eleanor of Aquitaine, this property borders on some of Saint-Émilion's finest crus.

The vineyard

The vineyards for this Saint-Émilion Grand Cru wine are planted using sustainable methods, including natural grass cover, and cover 5 hectares of clay-loam and clay-sand terroirs. The vines are on average 15 years old.

Winemaking and ageing

The grapes were harvested by hand, sorted on the vine and destemmed. Densimetric sorting was followed by hand sorting before vatting. Vinification in temperature-controlled concrete vats with light pumping over for 20 to 24 days. The wine was aged for 12 months in barrels (40% of which were new).

Blend

Château Roylland 2022 is a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
