Bordeaux Superieur AOC - Château La Croix de Lamothe

The Bordeaux Supérieur from the Bordeaux wine-growing region presents itself in the glass in a radiant purple-red. On the nose, this red wine from Château La Croix de Lamothe reveals all kinds of blackcurrants, blackberries, blueberries and mulberries.

This French wine delights with its elegantly dry taste profile. It was bottled with 4.1 grams of residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and thus, despite all its dryness, this Frenchman enchants with the finest balance. Aroma does not necessarily require sugar. This dense red wine presents itself on the palate as balanced and complex. Thanks to its present acidity, the Bordeaux Supérieur reveals itself wonderfully fresh and lively on the palate. On the finish, this youthful wine from the Bordeaux region finally impresses with a beautiful length. Once again, hints of blackcurrant and mulberry appear.

Vinification of the Bordeaux Supérieur from Château La Croix de Lamothe

The basis for the well-balanced Bordeaux Supérieur from Bordeaux is grapes from the Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot varieties. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are brought to the press house without delay. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine is aged for several months on the fine lees before it is finally bottled.
