The wine region of Loupiac
Sweet AOC on the right bank of the Garonne (Entre-deux-Mers, opposite Barsac): Sémillon signature sweet white king (~80%) — thick skin welcoming Botrytis cinerea (noble rot), signature rich, ample and unctuous profile with signature aromas of honey, candied fruits, dried apricot and white flowers, elegant structure balanced by acidity. Sauvignon Blanc bringing citrus liveliness and herbaceous touches, floral Muscadelle in complement. Style close to Sauternes.
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.
The word of the wine: Old vines
There are no specific regulations governing the term "vieilles vignes". After 20 to 25 years, the yields stabilize and tend to decrease, the vines are deeply rooted, and the grapes that come from them give richer, more concentrated, more sappy wines, expressing with more nuance the characteristics of their terroir. It is possible to find plots of vines that claim to be a century old.
