Comment

A wine signed Christian Sanguigne, a harvest winemaker in Bourg. Vines of about fifteen years on clay-limestone soils. The Bourg vineyard is located on the right bank of the Gironde estuary, some 35 km north of Bordeaux. The river water mass softens the very sunny microclimate of the hillsides. The soils are mainly clay-limestone. They are based on layers of porous stones that bring good natural drainage. Balanced, elegant, very attractive, the red wines of the bourg coasts are generous, full -bodied, aromatic and equipped with a tannic structure which makes them particularly suitable for aging.
