Château Beau Rivage, Bordeaux Supérieur AC, "Benjamin" organic wine, red, 2014/16, from € 15,95

 

Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon are the high-quality grape varieties in the vineyards of Bordeaux. They characterize this Château Beau Rivage "Benjamin" with freshness and balance. With its 18 months maturation and refinement in wood barrel, this red wine is a very good ambassador of its origin. Benjamin was baptized because he was made from grapes from younger vines.

Organic wine - processing, Château Beau Rivage, Bordeaux Supérieur"Benjamin", red

Outstanding features are the double number of vines prescribed for Bordeaux Superieure wines and the low yields of only 25 hl / ha.

The 8 hectares of vineyards on former boggy and reclaimed flooring consisting of mud, silt, clay, loose rock (quartz, mica and feldspar) are planted with 6.600 vines/ha with an average age of 38 years (2012). Their yield is limited to 40 hl / hectare. The grape harvest was carried out by hand from October 3 to 17. Before performing the actual fermentation, the grapes were gently crushed and subjected to a cold maceration. Then started the 4-week alcoholic fermentation in large wooden vats. Then the wine is racked in barriques (new 40%) from the family's own production, where the organic wine undergoes the malolactic fermentation and a 15 months lasting maturation.
