The Wines

Bordeaux is renowned worldwide for its exceptional terroirs, some of which were discovered early on and benefited from the famous rankings… Others weren’t so lucky. These gems, hidden or isolated, required more time and the passion of winemakers to be revealed, especially in the “forgotten” area known as Entre-Deux-Mers. “Le Grand Rossignol” is one of them. With their unique swelling nature, the highly clayey soils of this spot perfectly regulate vine water supply, generating naturally low yields and a moderate to high water constraint that favors highly expressive wines. As a result, they transcend grape varieties and produce a vin de garde, pure expression of a rare terroir which, despite its obvious power, will never lack balance and elegance. Cherished and raised with as much care as a Grand Cru, this is the first in series of wines destined to expand: “Champ de Mariotte”, “Mathelot” and “La Pradasse”, refine their style…

Here are the estate’s Grands Vins, Heritage signed. They reveal the potential of our swelling clays and limestone outcrops terroirs, when we offer them the aging in oak barrels they deserve, as heirs of Bordeaux Grands Crus tradition. They embody our desire to create dense, complex and elegant wines, true embodiment of the work of excellence carried out on our best plots. For all you Great wines lovers, here is a hidden gem of the Bordeaux hierarchy!

We have a dream: Create a fine wine capable of withstanding the test of time thanks to its strength and natural balance alone. Freed from Sulfites. We have a desire: Revealing a pure and original fruit side of Cabernet Sauvignon, its main grape variety. Only armed with meticulous care and the demanding selection of its plots, this wine found the path to its true nature: It embodies a natural fruit and power, tempered by a singular voluptuousness.

Just the once will not hurt: Flush out the Bordeaux originality! Relying more on exuberance, this (very modern) wine intends to provoke an intense and immediate pleasure. The concentration is not limited to flavors; It can be found both in depth and complexity of a body derived from the strong clays of the estate, and/or in the earthy tension contributed by the starfish limestone.

Being given the same care as flagship wines, Reserve wines offer a charming style and a fleshy body. Their fruit is dense and flavorful, while the undoubted complexity and aftertaste make them unquestioned Bordeaux signature wines, above and beyond their regional appellation standards. As a result, they have been among the most nominated and awarded wines of their category for over 20 years.

An emblematic Rosé: Here we have the Best in Show French Rose wine trophy winner at the 2015 French International Wine Challenge! Fiendishly enjoyable and well-crafted, this wine appeals for greediness thanks to its delicious balance, a combination of fresh, delicate floral notes and dominant fruity taste. Its assertive character is perfect at table: Definitely a wine for gastronomy which plays on density and shows depth with a real body. All the pieces fit together to craft “THE” Bordeaux Rosé.
