Chateau de Lavagnac

Located in Saint-Terre, adjacent to Saint Emilion. Wines aged in vats subjected to rigorous temperature control. Fermentation lasts around twenty days with three to four daily pumpings performed in order to extract good levels of tannin. Since the year 2000 top Bordeaux is aged in 50% new barrels for six months. A subtle blend enhances the fruity wine without the wood being too dominant. Owned by Michele and Philippe Riviere.
