Vinification of the Le Merle Blanc de Château Clarke by Baron Edmond de Rothschild

The vinification of the Le Merle Blanc de Château Clarke is based on a careful and traditional process. The grapes come from hand-picked vineyards that thrive under optimal conditions, with a mild climate and nutrient-rich soil. Primarily, the grape varieties Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon are used.

1. Harvesting takes place in the early morning hours to best preserve the fresh aromas of the grapes.

2. After harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed to extract the must.

3. The must is then fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to optimally integrate the fruity aromas into the wine.

4. After fermentation, the wine matures for several months on the lees, adding extra complexity and structure.

5. Finally, the wine is carefully bottled to preserve its freshness and aromatic diversity.

The combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology makes this wine an outstanding example of the highest quality from the region.
