About the wine
Coveted Right Bank Bordeaux that's sure to please
-
You’ve met a fancy Bordeaux that’s a crowd pleaser – an easy-drinker with flavors like cherry, raspberry, cocoa and delicate oak spice from 9 months of French oak barrel aging.
-
Angel support lets Pénélope (who used to work at THE Château Latour!) harvest the finest Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec from the estate she oversees – Cháteau Siaurac in Lalande-de-Pomerol – right next door to Right Bank Bordeaux’s illustrious plateau of Pomerol.
-
“My Plaisir (pleasure in English) offers a lovely tasting experience – either as an apéritif, during a meal – or both,” she says. Get your share while it's still available!
Best before
This wine has a good potential ageing. 3 to 5 years.
Serving advice
We suggest to open it around two hours before enjoying. Decantation will permit tannins to become milder.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Pénélope Godefroy
- Pénélope landed a research and development role at THE Château Latour – one of Bordeaux’s First Growth estates – after an international wine education. She was a cellar hand for Craggy Range (New Zealand) and worked her way up to Assistant Winemaker at Tenuta Argentiera (Italy), before returning to her beloved France.
- At Château Latour, she took part in the adventure of storied French estates like Northern Rhône’s Château-Grillet and Burgundy’s Domaine d'Eugénie – honing her winegrowing and winemaking skills to craft iconic reds and whites.
- She thought she’d made it big then, but these days, she’s the Head Winemaker at Château Siaurac in Bordeaux’s Lalande-de-Pomerol – an estate vineyard in the continuity of the famous plateau of Pomerol. It’s a new peak – especially now that she can share the best Right Bank wines for Angels to enjoy.
