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: Black Grenache
Grenache is a black grape variety that originated in Spain and is one of the great quality varieties of southern France. Sometimes vinified on its own, it is most often blended with one or more other Rhone or southern grape varieties with complementary qualities such as Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan or Cinsault. Its wines are warm, with aromas of red fruits (cherry) and spices; they oxidize with time. Vinified alone or in very large proportions, Grenache Noir also makes great natural sweet wines in Roussillon (Rivesaltes, Banyuls, Maury) and in the Rhône Valley (Rasteau).
