Chateau Belregard Figeac ‘Tellus Vinea’ Bordeaux Rouge (2021)

Chateau Belregard Figeac ‘Tellus Vinea’ Bordeaux Rouge (2021) – The grapes for this wine are harvested (by hand) from vineyards that border the Lalande de Pomerol appellation. The grapes undergo a three-day cold maceration; the alcoholic fermentation then proceeds for eight to ten days. The wine is racked several times during its elevage in stainless steel and cement tanks before being bottled after an egg-white fining. The grape composition is predominantly Merlot with a touch of Cabernet Franc in the blend that provides additional structure to the wine.
