2016Château Tour de Boisset(Red)
Ch. Tour
de Boisset belongs to Marc Lurton, related to the
biggest wine dynasty in the world. In 2013, Marc Lurton started converting to
biological farming, parcel by parcel. Millésime 2015 was the first ‘AB’
biological certified wine.
Marc
Lurton – an oenologist who graduated from the university of Bordeaux – manages
the family domains with his wife Agnes since 1996. Recently, one of his
daughters Pauline joined them, she represents the 6th generation.
The vineyard is situated on the heights of l’Entre-deux-mers, 10 km from Saint
Emilion. The unique thing is that it has a quarry that made it possible to
build an underground house. Now it is used for ageing the red wine in oak
barrels. The quality of the red grapes is a direct
result of the good care of the vines. A meticulous selection of the
harvest (vintages and parcels are vinified separately). Classic Bordeaux vinification: destemming, fermentation
between 25 and 30°. Maceration of 3 to 4 weeks to obtain more complexity,
malolactic fermentation.
The
vines are grown in biological farming Agrocert certified, as well as AREA
certified, equal to level 2 of the High Environmental Value HVE certification. In transition to HVE3 and Vegan
certification.
