Winemaker: Grégoire Rousseau
Appellation: Bordeaux, France
Grape Varieties: 50% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Franc
The grapes are sorted twice: once in the vines and once again upon returning to the
cellar. The Merlot is destemmed and macerated for three weeks, while the Cabernet
Franc undergoes carbonic maceration for 12 days. After 12 months of aging in
neutral vats, the wine was aged two more years in the bottle before being released.
This wine could be paired with many types meat and poultry, such as cured sausage,
roast pork with rosemary, grilled duck breast, and roast chicken.
