Featured Product
Grape Varieties: Malbec
Description: Ever aiming at making the best, Bertrand-Gabriel Vigouroux was one of the first French winemakers to experiment in-barrel vinification, that is to say in 400 litre barrels on “rollers”. The grapes only ever go in to one container: their cask, from vinification to bottling. This high-level technique was an integral part of Cuvée Géron Dadine de Haute-Serre (first used in the 2005 vintage). The resulting wine is a real delicacy, where the spice of the wood merges into the fruit without overpowering the wine.
