The wine region of Bordeaux Supérieur
Quality expression of generic Bordeaux: more concentrated, structured reds suited to 3-7 years' ageing, dominated by round Merlot (plum, black fruits), with firm Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, cedar), Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot for the tannic frame. Stricter rules: higher planting density, limited yields, higher alcohol, longer ageing (often 12 months). Across the whole Gironde. Affordable yet serious Bordeaux, perfect at the table.
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: Aging on lees
Maturing on the lees enhances the stability, aromatic complexity and texture of white wines, which gain in body and volume. This phenomenon is induced by autolysis, the process of self-degradation of the lees.
