ANTHESE PUISSEGUIN SAINT-ÉMILION 2021

According to the seasons, the vine evolves. In spring, blooming is synonymous with poetry. It corresponds to the period of flowering of the vine. The flower then releases a subtle and delicate scent, before taking the form of a cluster, which will be harvested in autumn, at the time of the grape harvest and which will give birth to this wine. This range 'Anthèse' is a clever blend of modern and traditional working methods aimed at preserving the environment and people. It is the result of the daily respect of our winemakers for their terroirs, what surrounds them, and those who will appreciate this wine.

Complicated weather conditions have marked the entire 2021 campaign. Nevertheless, the vinifications surprised us with the juices. The 2021 vintage is therefore quite colorful, with aromas of fresh fruit and a balanced structure.

Puisseguin is located across from the Saint-Emilion plateau. The appellation covers approximately 760 hectares. Located on clay-limestone soils, these allow for the production of full-bodied and complex wines that have a good aging potential.

Traditional vinification in stainless steel tanks, with controlled temperatures. Delestages are carried out to optimize and accentuate the extraction of fruit, color, richness, and roundness of the wine.

We have carried out an alternative wood aging, which allows us to fully control the woody notes, keeping them discreet, while bringing creaminess and giving pride of place to fruity notes. This is complemented by aging in concrete tanks, which helps to preserve the freshness of the wine and the expression of the fruit.
