The wine region of Lussac-Saint-Émilion
Northern Saint-Émilion satellite on the Bordeaux Right Bank (AOC 1936, ~72,000 hl/year): rich, silky reds dominated by Merlot — ripe red and black fruits, candied plum, pepper, undergrowth and animal leather notes with age, melted tannins and velvety texture. Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Petit Verdot in blends. Varied terroirs: southeastern clay-limestone hillsides typical of Saint-Émilion and gravelly western plateau, generous and accessible identity.
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: Tired
Wine that is too old, faded or has suffered from handling such as racking or bottling. In the first case it is too late, in the second case the wine must be put to rest for a few weeks in the cellar.
