AOC Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux on the right bank of the Gironde opposite the Médoc (6,500 ha), clay-limestone soils, 240 days of sunshine. Merlot is the signature red (~70%): round and fruity with notes of plum, black cherry, blackberry, undergrowth, and a spiced touch, supple tannins and generous flesh — accessible young but with good aging potential. Cabernet Sauvignon (~20%) adds structure and blackcurrant notes, Malbec as complement. Dry whites from Sauvignon and Sémillon with citrus notes.
