Presentation
"I took over the family business in 1981. We have been involved for many years in environmental initiatives to preserve the terroir, nature and respect for the consumer. Fruity and full-bodied, our cuvée has aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and fresh fruit." Christophe Chasselinat
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
Destemming and crushing of the grapes. Alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperature with selected yeasts and maceration of the skins. This step takes about 2 to 3 weeks to obtain a supple, round wine. Malolactic fermentation, then ageing in stainless-steel and concrete tanks.
