  • Le Vignoble De Pessac-Léognan Et Des Graves
    Le vignoble de Pessac Léognan Le vignoble de Pessac-Léognan et des Graves Photo : Château carbonnieux ! Ecole du vin muscadelle www.ecole-muscadelle.fr ! 1 Le vignoble de Pessac Léognan Introduction L’AOC pessac-léognan est jeune, elle a vu le jour en 1987. Pourquoi une création si tardive? Pourquoi avoir voulu se différencier de l’ AOC graves dont elle faisait partie? Pourquoi un seul vin rouge de la région des Graves, Château Haut-Brion, a-t’il été sélectionné pour faire partie des grands crus classés de 1855 alors les vins liquoreux de cette zone ont un classement rien que pour eux? Durant ce cours, l’idée sera de vous donner les grandes lignes de la spécificité de cette AOC prestigieuse et de mieux vous faire comprendre sa relation à l’AOC graves, au Sauternais, au reste du vignoble bordelais et à la ville de Bordeaux. Pour ceux qui n’ont pas encore eu le loisir de visiter cette région, je vous invite à le faire, le vignoble est en certains endroits totalement fondu dans la ville, mais en cherchant bien on le trouve. Localisation Le vignoble des Graves se trouve en région Aquitaine, dans le département de la Gironde, sur la rive gauche de la Garonne, autour de la ville de Bordeaux. Il est délimité au nord par la commune d’Eysines et du Haillan, à l’est par la ville de Bordeaux dans laquelle certains châteaux ont pu résister comme Haut-Brion ou Pape-Clément, à l’ouest par les landes et au sud par Mazères, Langon et Saint-Pierre-de-Mons.

    Retail Savings $16.99 $29.00 41% 2011 Château des Graves Bordeaux Blancproduct-timed-pdf - Graves, Bordeaux - *US Exclusive Direct Import | 93pts Rated Why We're Drinking It Chardonnay? Yawn. Viognier? Albarino? Ho-hum. Looking for a new white that’s crisp enough to sip in the sun, solid enough to drink with dinner, and complex enough to enjoy on its own? Look no farther than Bordeaux. Giving praise where its due, wine writer, former merchant in Paris, and all-around champion of French vin, Steven Spurrier says: “I have a particular affection for the Graves, because they are such elegant wines.” Indeed, Graves is one of the most important districts of Bordeaux for both reds and whites, and the appellation where some of the earliest estates (Château Haut-Brion, La Mission-Haut-Brion, and Pape-Clément) were established. So when we wanted something special and undiscovered, we knew where to look. And what we found was drop-your-jaw delicious: the 2011 Château des Graves Bordeaux Blanc, a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon coming directly from the producer. Our Panel calls it “an easy-drinking wine that is built to go with food, but can easily stand alone,” complimenting the attractive nose, healthy acidity, and powerful minerality, and adding, “The price is unbeatable, as Graves wine are remarkably undervalued.” Inside Fact: Located on the left bank of the Garonne river, southeast of the city of Bordeaux, Graves is the only subregion famous for producing all three of Bordeaux's main wine types: reds, dry whites, and sweet wines.

Wine businesses from major wine-producing countries have been focusing on this market. New Zealand, as the fastest growing wine producer in the New World countries, has targeted East Asia, especially China, as an export destination. However, the market share and reputation of New Zealand wines has not been very high and many New Zealand wine exporters have neither understood the Chinese market very well, nor successfully set up their export business there. The findings of this study will inform current and potential wine exporters from New Zealand of effective market entry procedures. A qualitative methodology was employed to identify the key elements of exporting New Zealand wine to China. Fourteen businesses, including eleven New Zealand wine exporters and three China-based wine import distributors were interviewed. The data was analysed using qualitative data methods. The study found that New Zealand wine exporters have used four market entry modes, chosen according to the different characteristics of their businesses: indirect exporting, direct exporting, joint venture, and acquisition. This study also identified key elements in successfully exporting New Zealand wine to China, including the selection of market entry modes, distribution channels, and suitable importer/distributors, the initial organisation of the wine export process, and the development of business relationships.

  • Château Graville-Lacoste
    CHÂTEAU DUCASSE CHÂTEAU ROUMIEU-LACOSTE CHÂTEAU GRAVILLE-LACOSTE Country: France Region: Bordeaux Appellation(s): Bordeaux, Graves, Sauternes Producer: Hervé Dubourdieu Founded: 1890 Farming: Haute Valeur Environnementale (certified) Website: under construction Hervé Dubourdieu’s easy charm and modest disposition are complemented by his focus and ferocious perfectionism. He prefers to keep to himself, spending most of his time with his family in his modest, tasteful home, surrounded by his vineyards in the Sauternes and Graves appellations. Roûmieu-Lacoste, situated in Haut Barsac, originates from his mother’s side of the family, dating back to 1890. He also owns Château Graville-Lacoste and Château Ducasse, where he grows grapes for his Graves Blanc and Bordeaux Blanc, respectively. In the words of Dixon Brooke, “Hervé is as meticulous a person as I have encountered in France’s vineyards and wineries. Everything is kept in absolutely perfect condition, and the wines showcase the results of this care – impeccable.” Hervé is incredibly hard on himself. Despite the pedigree and complexity of the terroir and the quality of the wines, he has never been quite satisfied to rest on his laurels, always striving to outdo himself. This is most evident in his grape-sorting process for the Sauternes. Since botrytis is paramount to making great Sauternes, he employs the best harvesters available, paying them double the average wage to discern between the “noble rot,” necessary to concentrate the sugars for Sauternes, and deleterious rot. Hervé is so fastidious that he will get rid of a whole basket of fruit if a single grape with the harmful rot makes it in with healthy ones to be absolutely sure to avoid even the slightest contamination.

  • Bordeaux Wines.Pdf
    A Very Brief Introduction to Bordeaux Wines Rick Brusca Vers. September 2019 A “Bordeaux wine” is any wine produced in the Bordeaux region (an official Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée) of France, centered on the city of Bordeaux and covering the whole of France’s Gironde Department. This single wine region in France is six times the size of Napa Valley, and with more than 120,000 Ha of vineyards it is larger than all the vineyard regions of Germany combined. It includes over 8,600 growers. Bordeaux is generally viewed as the most prestigious wine-producing area in the world. In fact, many consider Bordeaux the birthplace of modern wine culture. As early as the 13th century, barges docked along the wharves of the Gironde River to pick up wine for transport to England. Bordeaux is the largest producer of high-quality red wines in the world, and average years produce nearly 800 million bottles of wine from ~7000 chateaux, ranging from large quantities of everyday table wine to some of the most expensive and prestigious wines known. (In France, a “chateau” simply refers to the buildings associated with vineyards where the wine making actually takes place; it can be simple or elaborate, and while many are large historic structures they need not be.) About 89% of wine produced in Bordeaux is red (red Bordeaux is often called "Claret" in Great Britain, and occasionally in the U.S.), with sweet white wines (most notably Sauternes), dry whites (usually blending Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon), and also (in much smaller quantities) rosé and sparkling wines (e.g., Crémant de Bordeaux) collectively making up the remainder.

  • CHÂTEAU COUSTAUT Bordeaux, France
    CHÂTEAU COUSTAUT Bordeaux, France Chateau Coustaut is an ancient domaine run by the Ardurats family, it has been passed from father to son since the 16th century, predating the reign of King Henry IV! The vineyards, covering 40 hectares, are located in two villages in the north of Graves at the border of Pessac-Leognan, La Brede and Saint-Morillon. Maintaining the tradition of the region has always been a priority for the Ardurats. Before the big frost in 1956, which destroyed a quarter of the vineyards in Bordeaux, the Graves area was renowned for their white wines. Today, of course, the most famous wines from the Graves are red, but Coustaut continues the tradition of white wine in the region with half of their production in white. Mostly, Coustaut has terroir with black sand mixed with Graves Rouge 2017 12/750ml gravel for the topsoil and then a deep gravel subsoil; the remaining 20% of the vineyards have a clay and limestone Normally this is an even split between Cabernet soil. The north of Graves is considered the ‘preferred’ area of Graves as they have gravel, instead of the sand found in Sauvignon and Merlot, but in 2017, it is the south. Taking good care of the soil and vines for future exceptionally 100% Merlot. Most of the Cabernet generations has always been a priority for Coustaut and in Sauvignon was lost to frost. Interestingly enough, 2003, they were one of the first wineries in Bordeaux to it still feels taught and smokey, all of the character become certified sustainable by Terra Vitis.

    Bon jour! Some background info on me, etc. 1 2 Here ‘s some comp maps showing overall geological formations of France, and a map of the Beaujolais Cru 3 4 5 6 France accounts for almost 2/3 of sales In the US, it represents 9% of all French wine sales: of which half is Beau. Village, ca. 30% Nouveau, 11% Beau or Beau Sup. And 9% Crus 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 The vatting can last even longer up to a month or so, if one is attempting a ‘cru’ style serious wine for aging. 15 Fermentation usually starts within a day for the whole berries, while the slightly crushed fruit/juice at bottom will begin fermenting fairly quickly, before oxygen in tank is depleted. 16 17 Topographically, if one just considered the more limestone, sandy soils, one would think that the southern Beaujolais is pretty flat, but in fact much of it is still quite hilly and beautiful-perhaps more so than some of the Cru areas to the north. 18 19 Some of the Crus are NOT grown on granitic, but often a combo of metamorphic/volcanic soils. What is true is that limestone is generally not good for fine gamay, so no Cru has limestone as a main component. 20 Of course you may think that…I couldn’t possibly comment! (with apologies to the original House of Cards Sir Francis) 21 The 2013 vintage in Beaujolais was late - cool and rainy spring, which delayed flowering-- a summer of high temperatures and sunshine brought hope of reprieve.
