ABOUT THE WINE
Château Cailleteau Bergeron is a family-run estate rooted in the Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux. The Dartier family began their winemaking journey in 1930 with the acquisition of 2 hectares in Mazion. The estate was formally established in 1965 by the second generation, and in 1992, Marie-Pierre and Pierre-Charles Dartier took the reins, expanding the vineyard holdings to 39 hectares through strategic acquisitions. Their commitment to sustainable viticulture and precise winemaking has positioned the château as a standout in the appellation.
TASTING NOTES
The 2022 vintage is generous and expressive, offering vibrant red and black fruit aromas with underlying notes of tobacco leaf, subtle leather, and baking spice. On the palate, it’s smooth and medium-bodied, with ripe tannins and a fresh, juicy finish that shows excellent balance and ageing potential.
FOOD PAIRING
Ideal with grilled beef, lamb chops, duck breast, or spiced dishes like Moroccan tagine. Also pairs well with roast chicken or a hearty mushroom risotto.
FRIARWOOD SAYS
A great-value Bordeaux red from a rising star in Blaye. The 2022 vintage reflects the warmth of the year while retaining balance and finesse — a smart choice for everyday drinking or cellaring for a few years.
