Les Temps Modernes 2015

Description

This Sainte Foy Bordeaux is a selection of grapes from our best old vines, fermented separately and matured one year
in French oak casks.
This blending with dominant Merlot (90%) offers a complex nose with a vanilla note, coco and candied fruits.
In mouth, the wine reveals suppleness in attack, rich, fat and silky, well-rounded by velvety and delicate tannins which promises
A good ageing.
Our best plots of Merlot are selected and worked especially to do this exeptional wine.

Vinification

After hand-selection on a conveyor, the grapes are put in new stainless steel open vats, fermented under automatic temperature control at 25°C with the Burgundy system of “pigeage”. Then the wine is matured in oak barrels (50% 2 years old, 50% 3 years old).

Go with

All meats and game, and especially with beef and duck. To be tasted with “Jarrets d’agneau en Gasconnade” (recipe available).
