Presentation

This wine results from the assemblage of several plots selected on the different Domaines Lapalu vineyards. At the beginning of August the evolution of the maturity of these plots is evaluated and a certain number of these plots are then assigned to the production of our wine Patache.

The purpose is to obtain a Medoc which is up to date, supple and aromatic with rich tannins but with a good structure which garantees its future development.

Then we were determined to choose an original and lively presentation which contrasts with the usual heavy classical style of the Bordeaux wines.
