VINS DE BOURGUEIL Details
Located in the heart of the Loire Valley, the Bourgueil vineyard covers 1,400 hectares. The Bourgueil appellation extends its vines within 7 villages between Saint-Patrice and Bourgueil. The soils are made of sand and gravels (locally called "gravier") or "tuffs", rock of clay-limestone nature.Bourgueil wines are mostly red - 96%, the remaining wines being rosé !On "gravier" soils, the wines are full of red and black fruits flavors. They are lighter, easily drinkable when young, and can age from 2 to 5 years. They can be served a bit chilly.On the clay-limestone slopes or "tuffs", wines show more tannins and more complexity. They deserve a few years of ageing and will definitely give beautiful reds after 10 or 15 years, even more for the best vintages !In the center of Bourgueil village, lies the family home of Jean Carmet, a former French famous actor. The house is a 15th century building, and is today the House of Bourgueil wines. It is open all year, where a dozen red and rosé wines are offered every day for tasting. This is also a great place to discover and understand the different terroirs, and of course, a good place to buy and bring several beautiful wines back home among the 130 references available.Any question?
