Details and technical informations about Château Haut Laulion's Bordeaux Moelleux.
Discover the grape variety: Knipperlé
Dry, lively and neutral whites, with a pale golden robe, a taut palate with preserved acidity on undemonstrative citrus and white flower aromas. Discreet and productive rustic profile. Once more widespread, today virtually extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections and a few patrimonial Alsatian parcels, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic heritage of Alsace. Autochthonous Alsatian white variety.

Sauvignon Blanc brings taut acidity, Muscadelle the floral aromatic. Accessible, gastronomic style, affordable alternative to Sauternes.

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: Second fermentation
In the making of champagne, fermentation of the base wine to which is added the liqueur de tirage and which takes place in the bottle. This second fermentation produces the carbon dioxide, and therefore the bubbles that make up the effervescence of the wine.
