Presentation
The plots of Haut la Rulotte are located on the plateau of Lussac, facing the plateau of Saint-Emilion. The grape varieties are predominantly Merlot. Cabernet franc and Cabernet sauvignon are added to the blend to produce an elegant wine typical of its appellation.
The vintage
This solar vintage, of very high quality, has produced fresh, powerful, and balanced wines. The exceptional quality of the tannins allows for the wines to be enjoyed young, but also ensures a good aging potential. A beautiful vintage!
Terroir
Lussac is located opposite the Saint-Emilion plateau. The clay-limestone terroir allows for the production of pleasant wines from a young age with good aging potential. These are fresh and delicate wines.
Winemaking
Traditional vinification with controlled temperatures. Pumping over is carried out to optimize and accentuate the extraction of fruit, colour, richness, and roundness of the wine.
Ageing
Concrete tank breeding allows to preserve the freshness of the wine and the expression of the fruit.
