In Portrait:

Château Lassègue

Château Lassègue is an elegantly situated estate in Saint-Émilion, whose old, sun-exposed vines are rooted on the southern slopes in limestone and clay soils. Merlot dominates, supported by Cabernet Franc and a little Cabernet Sauvignon; precise parcel selection and selective hand harvesting ensure concentrated, aromatically clear grapes. In the cellar, extraction is gentle and ageing in French oak is measured, balancing finesse and structure.

Bordeaux

Origin in Focus

Bordeaux

Bordeaux is one of the world’s most renowned wine regions – a name that has stood for elegance, diversity and ageing potential for centuries. Gravel, clay and limestone soils alternate, allowing fine nuances in the wines that reflect both terroir and craftsmanship.

Bordeaux is typically known for blends in which grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc work together harmoniously.

Stylistically, red Bordeaux wines are defined by a balance of fruit, structure and freshness. The white wines – usually made from Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and sometimes Muscadelle – range from crisp and citrus-driven to creamy and complex.
