{"product_id":"chateau-le-rey-les-rocheuses-2022","title":"Chateau Le Rey, Les Rocheuses, 2022","description":"Here's a Bordeaux made like a Burgundy: instead of the usual grand vin and second wine, Château Le Rey bottles two cuvées side by side, each from its own parcels, and Les Rocheuses is the limestone one. It comes from parcels 5 and 6 on the Sainte-Colombe plateau, a village just east of Saint-Émilion, where the soil is thin and the rock sits close to the surface. The estate credits that limestone with the minerality and finesse in its wines, and opening this next to its clay-grown sibling, Les Argileuses, is about as clear a terroir lesson as Bordeaux offers. The 2022 is 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. It was fermented parcel by parcel in small conical steel tanks, then aged 12 months in barrel with just 20% new oak, which is less than the estate usually uses. Only 8,000 bottles were made. Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux is still one of the Right Bank's better-kept secrets, and this is a great way to taste what Saint-Émilion-style limestone can do, without the famous-name markup.","brand":"Barriere Freres [MHW] [BRRFR]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50930256445497,"sku":"NYC-W-BRRFR-`BAF107950-22`-102326-10","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/IMG-5319.jpg?v=1793044058","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/chateau-le-rey-les-rocheuses-2022","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
