Presentation
Edmond Rostand is the creator of the famous play "Cyrano de Bergerac" inspired by the real character, Savinien Cyrano de Bergerac (1619 1655). It is thanks to his creativity and panache that Cyrano de Bergerac becomes a true icon in French literature and a symbol of the South West of France. For the people of Bergerac, Monsieur de Cyrano is an emblematic character, with a strong personality who evokes art and culture, like the winegrowers who produce this modern and aromatic cuvée.
Location
The Bergerac appellation is situated in the south of the Dordogne region. Ideally located on the hillsides of the Dordogne valley, sheltered from the maritime influence, the Bergerac Rouge appellation enjoys a particularly favourable climate. This yields enjoyable wines, both elegant and authentic, and the diversity in the vineyards brings variety and richness. This appellation is used for red wines which are lighter than the Côtes de Bergerac reds. Made from a blend of the traditional grape varieties, these wines are supple, elegant and fruity.
Winemaking
Destemming and crushing of the grapes. Alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperature using selected yeasts, with 2 to 3 weeks on skins to provide a round and supple wine. Ageing in stainless-steel and concrete tanks.
Varietals
Merlot
Cabernet sauvignon
Cabernet franc
