Origines Verdot 2018 – AOP Bordeaux – 100% Petit Verdot
LOCATION AND LANDSCAPE / Soil consists of clay-ironpan and
sand resting on Perigord-sand. The compactness of the
subsoil and coarse texture of the soil are particularly
favourable for the development of Petit Verdot, which
reveals its full aromatic potential in this wine.
GRAPE VARIETY / Petit Verdot
WINE MAKING / Traditional wine making. Grapes are placed
in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Fermentation will start after a cold maceration for about 3 days.
After fermentation the wine is kept on the skins for an
additional 15 days with one délestage.
After about 30 days, the wine is transferred into French
oak barrels (100% new oak) for a maturation period of
about 18 months.
TASTING NOTES / Deep ruby colour. The nose is complex
associating fruity notes (blackcurrant, blueberry, plum)
with liquorice, pepper and a touch of menthol.
The wine is generous on the palate and well-structured
with a nice tannic backbone. Aromas of black fruit
coming through, underlined by elegant toasty notes.
A wine to enjoy over the next eight to ten years.
