The wine region of Bordeaux Clairet

Bordeaux AOC heir of the medieval Anglo-Aquitaine "Claret", halfway between rosé and light red. Short maceration (24-72 h) on Bordeaux varieties. Cherry-hued signature wines with signature notes of red cherry, raspberry, redcurrant, wild strawberry, flowers and spice hint, light tannins and fresh palate — Merlot brings roundness, Cabernet Franc pepper, Cabernet Sauvignon structure. More structured than a rosé.

The wine region of Bordeaux

World-renowned age-worthy reds, led by round Merlot (plum, black fruit) or firm Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, cedar, graphite), blended with Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot for tannic structure. Structured Médoc and Graves, velvety Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. Also crisp dry whites (Sauvignon/Sémillon) and opulent sweet Sauternes with honey and candied fruit. A 110,000 ha Gironde vineyard, 65 appellations, cradle of the 1855 classified growths.
