A great value Bordeaux from Lussac-Saint-Émilion

Vignobles Andre Lurton is a family estate, established in the 1950s by André Lurton, and one of today’s largest and most important producers of the Bordeaux region. The vineyards of Château de Barbe Blanche are ideally situated on a clay-limestone hillside 87m above sea level on the slopes of Saint-Émilion. It is one of the benchmarks of its appellation. The property also boasts a superb 19th-century underground quarry that holds many secrets. In the vineyard, Merlot is king and Cabernet Franc is runner-up.

Their Lussac-Saint-Émilion is made from vines around 32 years old, and is a blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. The wine is aged in oak barrels (50% new) for 12 months, and will age for 10 – 12 years from vintage. Notes of cherry, strawberry and plum with fine tannins and a smooth, well-balanced finish.
