Food Matching Note:

Tasting Note:
A ruby colour, with slightly tiled reflections. Fresh, with subtle notes of cooked fruits, syrup macerated fruits and jam, with delicate hints of light wood, mushroom and spices. On the palate, this wine is balanced and structured, displaying spiced and fruity notes, and well balanced tannins. Les Bretèches 2007 is considered a wine in its full evolution, very easy to taste, and light enough to be consumed on any occasion.
Vinification Note:
Exclusively manual harvest, with the selection at the vineyard of the best grapes with optimal maturity. After destemming, berries are crushed before being placed in tanks. Alcoholic fermentation and macerations in thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks for a period of 1 to 3 weeks with temperatures ranging from 23 and 28 degrees depending on the vine. Malolactic fermentation in concrete tanks. Maturing takes place in tanks for ten months until the bottling process, then aging in bottles for a period of 6 months. No use of wood shavings. Bottled at the château, 10 months after vinification and stability control. First quality natural corks are used in 44-24mm.
