Merchant's description
Château de Saint-Cernin is a 12th Century feudal castle set in the heart of the Périgord region of France, close to the city of Bergerac. Robert Wessman, an Icelandic businessman, bought it at the beginning of the 2000s with the sole ambition to bring it back to its former glory and produce world class wines. The No.1 Rouge is a full-bodied and rich blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon.
