Domaine Galévan - Mas des Lysses - Châteauneuf du Pape
Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge
Domaine Galévan - Mas des Lysses - Châteauneuf du Pape Robert Parker :

"The 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape is impressive. If this gets in the bottle without too much clarification, this wine should turn out to be outstanding.

Impressively packed with loads of black raspberries, sweet cherries, and licorice notes along with a hint of balsam wood, this full-bodied wine has admirable purity, ripeness, and overall balance.

Beautiful symmetry and purity result in a real sleeper of the vintage that has impressive length and ripeness. Proprietor Coralie Goumarre produces the wine at this estate in the northern sector of Chateauneuf du Pape near the village of Courthezon. "

Château Patache d'Aux
Médoc
Patache d'Aux We picked the trail of the Chevalier d'Aux in 1632. Parent of the Count of Armagnac, this family already owned a renowned vineyard where stagecoaches were stopping. They were called « pataches ». Since then, this patache has become the logo of the company, it figures on all the labels of château Patache d'Aux, and recalls the time when human activity was based on the seasons.

Nowadays, lots of technical evolutions have been integrated in our activity but we are still depending on climatic changes as we stay humble in front of nature.

Sainte Barbe - Merlot
Bordeaux Supérieur

Sainte Barbe is situated on the peninsular of Ambès 20 kms from Bordeaux.

Despite its proximity, this was a region that we had never visited before. Over the last century the district had become industrialised leaving only a scattering of large bourgeois homes that had been very prestigeous in the nineteenth century.

Sainte Barbe - Rosé
Bordeaux Rosé
Sainte Barbe Rosé The Sainte Barbe vineyards currently cover 30 hectares of gravelly, alluvial soils on the right bank of the Garonne, some 20km north of Bordeaux.

The majority of the vineyards have been replanted since we acquired the estate in 1999. 80% of the vineyard is made up of Merlot, with the remaining 20% divided between Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.

Plantation densities vary from 4500 to 5500 vines per hectare depending on the characteristics of the soil. The choice of rootstock (Riparia 101.14-3309) and quality clones (Merlot clones 181-343-347) was made specifically taking into account the soils of Sainte Barbe.

Une véritable curiosité que ce Bordeaux Clairet, vinifié comme un vin rouge léger.

Du fruit, de la fraicheur, de la tendresse. Ce qui n'exclut pas équilibre et caractère.

Idéal en été, à l'apéritif, avec buffets froids et grillades.

A boire dans les deux ans qui suivent sa naissance.

Un vin blanc exceptionnel, particulièrement aromatique.

Il accompagne avec superbe, fruits de mer et poissons grillés.

A déguster dans les trois ans pour sa fraicheur, mais aussi à garder, car il évolue tout en rondeur et équilibre en bouteille.

Un vin frais, fruité, très légèrement acidulé et qui démontre de façon éclatante le renouveau qualitatif des vins blanc de l'Entre-Deux-Mers.
