Rouge Bordeaux AOC - Virecourt

With the Virecourt Rouge Bordeaux comes a first-class red wine in the glass. In this it reveals a wonderfully bright purple color. The first nose of the Rouge Bordeaux flatters with notes of plums, blueberries and plums. The fruity parts of the bouquet are joined by oak, toasted barrique and cigar box.

The Virecourt Rouge Bordeaux presents itself wonderfully dry to the wine drinker. This red wine never appears coarse or meager, but round and smooth. On the tongue, this balanced red wine is characterized by an incredibly dense texture. In the finish, this youthful red wine from the wine-growing region of Bordeaux finally inspires with considerable length. Once again, hints of black cherry and plum show. In the aftertaste, mineral notes of the soils dominated by marl and limestone are added.

Vinification of the Rouge Bordeaux of Virecourt

The basis for the first-class and wonderfully balanced Cuvée Rouge Bordeaux from Virecourt are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Bordeaux. Here, the vines dig their roots deep into soils of limestone, clay and marl. After harvesting, the grapes quickly reach the winery. Here they are sorted and carefully broken up. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After the end of fermentation, the Rouge Bordeaux can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for a few months....
