Merchant's description
Château L`If is a relatively new wine estate, founded in 2010 by Jacques Thienpont, who also owns the renowned Pomerol estate, Le Pin. The property is located in the heart of the Saint-Émilion appellation, on clay and gravel soils, and is planted to 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. The 2020 vintage is still in its infancy and will enter its drinking window in 2025. Presented here in a magnum bottle.
