Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Château Maurens 1990
Denne rødvin fra Château Maurens er en Appellation Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Contrôlée fra årgang 1990. Vinen er fremstillet i Bordeaux-regionen i Frankrig og er aftappet direkte på domænet.
Saint-Émilion Grand Cru er en selvstændig appellation på højre bred af Bordeaux. Den dækker geografisk samme område som Saint-Émilion, men er underlagt strengere produktionsregler. Området strækker sig over 5.400 hektar fordelt på otte kommuner omkring den middelalderlige by Saint-Émilion, som i 1999 blev optaget på UNESCO's verdensarvsliste. Vinene herfra fremstilles primært på Merlot i kombination med Cabernet Franc og en mindre andel Cabernet Sauvignon, som dyrkes på et varieret terroir af kalkplateauer, kalk-lerskråninger, grus og sandjorde. Netop årgang 1990 har i dette område opnået en score på 97 point og beskrives som en årgang med stor modenhed og balance.
For at opnå Grand Cru-statussen kræver appellationens regler et lavere maksimalt høstudbytte på 40 hektoliter per hektar, et højere minimumskrav til alkoholprocenten samt en længere lagringsperiode på mindst 20 måneder i produktionen sammenlignet med almindelig Saint-Émilion. Området rummer 85 klassificerede châteaux ifølge 2022-klassifikationen og anerkendes bredt som en dynamisk kilde til kvalitet i Bordeaux.
