Tasting notes

The 2020 Château Simard is a refined and classically styled Saint-Émilion, deeply influenced by its limestone terroir. Displaying a rich ruby hue, it opens with an elegant bouquet of black cherry, ripe plum, and violet, layered with subtle notes of graphite and cocoa.

On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and beautifully balanced, combining juicy, vibrant fruit with finely polished tannins. There is a quiet precision here—fresh, supple, and harmonious—leading to a persistent, mineral-tinged finish.

More About The Winery

A classic name of Saint-Émilion, Château Simard is known for producing wines that reflect a more traditional and restrained style of the appellation. Long associated with the Vauthier family of Château Ausone, the estate shares the same commitment to structure, longevity, and terroir expression.

The vineyard is planted on a mix of clay and limestone soils, providing both richness and freshness. Merlot forms the backbone of the blend, supported by Cabernet Franc, resulting in wines that favour balance and ageing potential over immediate opulence.

In the glass, Château Simard expresses dark cherry, plum, cedar, and earthy notes, with a firm structure and well-defined tannins. The style is deliberately classical—often more reserved in its youth, requiring time to fully reveal its complexity.

Unlike more modern Saint-Émilion wines, Simard is typically aged in a way that preserves freshness and avoids excessive oak influence, allowing the terroir to take centre stage.

Château Simard stands as a reminder of Bordeaux’s heritage—structured, honest, and built to evolve, offering a timeless expression of Saint-Émilion for those who appreciate tradition and patience.
