Croix De Chene French Red
Oak, earth, and old-world charm in every bottle.
The story behind Croix De Chene
Croix De Chene translates to Cross of the Oak, a name rooted in French vineyard parcels marked by sacred crosses and shaded by ancient oaks. The most prominent expression is a Right Bank Bordeaux blend from Pomerol, where small family estates craft Merlot-based wines aged in oak barrels. A southern blend from the Rhone and Languedoc border, near the Roman Pont du Gard, relies on Syrah and Grenache grown on stone-covered soils. Each bottle reflects its terroir, whether the structured Pomerol or the fruit-forward southern style.
For over thirty years, we have watched this label evolve, always offering value and a true taste of France. The wines are dry, with high fruit expression and virtually no residual sugar. Whether you choose the Merlot Syrah blend or the Pinot Noir, you are getting an honest French red that overdelivers.
