Location
The Lussac Saint-Emilion appellation is found to the north of the hill of Saint-Emilion. The first vineyard to be designated a World Heritage Site, the region is full of charm, with prestigious historic houses and Romanesque churches dominating its many hillsides. The vineyard is planted on hillsides, plateaux and at the foot of the slopes. The soil can be Perigord sand or clay-limestone, producing wines which can be enjoyed young as well as those designed for long ageing.
Winemaking
De-stemming and crushing of the harvest. Hot pre-fermentation extraction. The alcoholic fermentation, which lasts about 8 days, is carried out at controlled temperature with selected yeasts. Regular pumping over. Malolactic fermentation and maturation in stainless steel and concrete vats. The optimal date of harvest as well as the controlled extraction of the tannins allows us to obtain a wine with good substance and roundness.
