(Mérille) Abouriou Merlot Cabernets (Franc Et Sauvignon) Côt (Sélection Massale) Fer

AOC : Bergerac red Cépages : Périgord (Mérille) Abouriou Merlot Cabernets (Franc et Sauvignon) Côt (sélection massale) Fer Terroir : Clayey-limestone soils Vinification : Wine without sulphur. All bunches are destemmed, before being put directly into the vats on indigenous yeasts (thanks to the pied de cuve method of doing a very small pre-harvest to start the natural fermentation going). 20 days of maceration, during which 10 days a quick fermentation takes place until there are 0 grams of sugar left. The malolactic fermentation occurred in December 2015. The wine was bottled without being filtered in April 2016 without the addition of sulphur. 13,5% alc and no trace of Brettanomyces when analysed. Potentiel de garde : between 2 ans 4 years. Albert, him, drinks it in the year ! Style : The 2017 vintage boasts a deep grenat-colour with a bright purple touch. It lets off intense aromas of very fresh & ripe fruit, with a soft floral note too. The mouth is full, round and delicious with a delicately light sweetness and a lovely freshness. A real fruity wine! Label illustration : [email protected] Histoire : Albert planted this plot in the 60's., helped by his brother Primo. They deliberately blended several grape varieties in order to obtain a very fruity, complex and low-alcohol wine. Albert (Francis' father and Guillaume's grandfather) used to pick grapes on this plot to make his own wine, elaborated without any sulphur addition. We wanted to pay tribute to him by making a wine the way he used to make it, the way he liked it - and still likes it today! La Vigne d’Albert is fruity, easydrinking wine - uncork a bottle now !.
