BORDEAUX AOC
Description
Our Bordeaux is a traditional blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and
Merlot.
The vineyards are located on both limestone soils and gravely and
sandy soils. The climate is oceanic with high temperature variations
in summer (between the day and the night). We use a classic
Bordeaux vinification method with a long maceration (with
temperature control to extract the fruit and the tannic structure).
Our wine will then age in oak for 6 to 8 months (French and
American oak) to refine the tannins and make them silky.
Tasting Notes
An elegant and complex Bordeaux wine showing powerful flavors of ripe cherries and plum, some black pepper spicy note.
