Tasting Notes
Founded in 1570 by the Picoron family, Château Picoron has a long history of wine. Now days, Château Picoron is operated by an Australian family. What we produce is as much a celebration of the history of our winery, as it is the future. Our winery is a coming together of France & Australia, new & old, past & future. We produce limited production wines which celebrate our past, and inspire the next generation of wine drinkers. We produce only 2000 cases of wine per year, for our friends & family. Our winemaker, Stephane Apelbaum, believes nature to be our greatest collaborator, preferring a minimal intervention to vineyard management and winemaking. Our wine is produced sustainable, and we are on a journey toward organic farming conversion. Only 1000 cases produced! This is a 100% Merlot produced from the rolling clay and limestone hills of Chateau Picoron, aged with a hint of French Oak and now ready to drink.
