Domaine des Allegrets, Côtes de Duras – BKWine Pick

Per Karlsson — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 08:30:00 +0000

Julien Blanchard is young but already a very accomplished winemaker and we will no doubt hear more about him in the future, if I am not entirely mistaken. His wines are very well made, with both complexity and balance. He owns 60 ha and half of his production is white (overall, they make quite a […]

Per Karlsson — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 08:29:00 +0000

A small co-operative with some 1000 hectares. They have invested heavily in quality development in recent years and now work closely together with the individual growers. Stephan Clement, the winemaker, comes from Champagne and finds it quite natural that things work very differently here. He has introduced pigeage in 18 of the fermentation tanks. this […]

Domaine de Ferrand, Côtes de Duras – BKWine Pick

Per Karlsson — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 08:28:00 +0000

Côtes de Duras Côtes de Duras is today perhaps a not very well know district, located only 45 km from Saint Emilion, but that may well change. There are many similarities with St Emilion, both regarding the grape varieties used and the wine styles. What is very different, though, are the prices. Here you will […]

Château La Grave Figeac, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru | BKWine Pick

Per Karlsson — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 08:17:00 +0000

A small wine property, as is common in Saint Emilion, of only 6 hectares of vines, but one that is moving upwards on the wine quality scale. It is situated strategically between two more famous wine estates: the Chateau Cheval Blanc and the Chateau La Conseillante (Pomerol). Excellent wines.

Château Belingard, Bergerac | BKWine Pick

Per Karlsson — Sat, 17 Feb 2007 10:19:00 +0000

Laurent de Bosredon took over this family property in the mid-80s. He had, and has, one target in mind: to raise the quality of, and the consumer interest for, the two appellations Bergerac and Monbazillac. He started practicing the methods developed by the oenologist Denis Dubordieu, researcher in Bordeaux. For example, a few hours skin […]
