Barsac Wines

Barsac is a commune of the Sauternes region, located in the southern part of the Graves and famous for sweet wines made usually from botrytis (noble rot) affected grapes. Here, the Ciron River meets the Garonne River which produces mists ideal for the development of botrytis. Sémillon is the main component with some Sauvignon Blanc and tiny amounts of Muscadelle. Wines from Barsac may actually be labelled as either Barsac or Sauternes. The wines are often filled with strong citrus, honey and tropical fruit aromas with some vanilla notes and of course sweetness. Barsac wines tend to be a little lighter and delicate with higher acidity than their Sauternes counterparts.

But, the real thing you are here for, presumably, is the tour exploring Ferraton and Domaine Farge, the famous hills of Hermitage…

Chapoutier Wines
Chapoutier is a long-established Rhone Valley wine producer with roots going back to 1808, where it was first established as 'Calvet et Compagnie'. In 1883 it was bought by Rodolphe Delepine, and Marius Chapoutier joined the venture in 1897, where it became known as 'Delepine et Chapoutier'. Delepine retired in 1922 and Chapoutier took the reigns, creating a new winery at the foot of the famous Hermitage hill. Since then it has remained in family hands, with Michel Chapoutier at the helm who has…

Sustainability focus: Bordeaux
This blog might well be for the real enthusiasts as it is based off my research essay I submitted for my Diploma qualification recently. So, all I have to say is, good luck! But, in all truth, this topic is very prevalent in the wine world and gives a real insight into changing vineyard and winemaking practices. Environmental impacts are fast becoming a key concern for consumer and producer alike as the effects of climate change have increased over the past few decades, if you couldn’t tell (how…
