Bergerac AOC
A broad and juicy Merlot, filled with ripe fruits - red and dark - alongside spicy notes and gentle earthiness. The wine is meaty on the palate with an excellent structure of tannins and acidity that's married to a medium-bodied texture. Excellent value for quality! Great with lasagnas or a classic steak frites.
Producer Info
Julien Auroux returned to the family estate located in the town of Boisse, south of the Dordogne, in 2013. After working in Australia, Pomerol and Fitou, Auroux worked for 8 years as a Cellar master in Montbazillac where he had “carte blanche” for winemaking.
Since the vineyard had been abandoned for six generations, he returned to Bergerac with one idea in mind: to begin rebuilding the 11.2 hectare estate organically. He achieved his goal as the domain is now certified Ecocert.
