Le Libertin de Lussac 2013

Bordeaux 2013 was a year that produced a number of attractive red wines. Climatically, the skill of the producers was tested, and state-of-the-art technology and strict selection played an important role.
The average age of the vines is 30 years. Limestone, clay and loamy soils. Fruit sorting was done twice, once by machine and once by hand. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks for one week under temperature control, followed by aging on lees. The wine has a deep red color and an impressive nose of ripe berries, plums, and dried fruits. The aromas of licorice and toasted oak are subtle, creating an exquisite balance and depth on the palate. The long, lingering finish is an attractive feature of this wine.
