Chateau La Freynelle Entre-deux-Mers AC Bordeaux
Situated in the Entre Deux Mers, Château La Freynelle is a 75 hectare estate, with a mixture of clay and limestone soil. Sourced from vines planted in the early 1980's which are Single or double Guyot trained depending on the strength of the vine and density of the planting which yield 55 to 60 hl/ha. The grapes are picked at full maturity and undergo a traditional vinification with destemming of the harvest. Pneumatic pressing in a vacuum ensures that they are pressed slowly and gently. The temperature is maintained at around 19° during fermentation. The wine is then aged and bottled at the château before release. A classic blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and a hint of Muscadelle. Aromatic on the nose with hints of gooseberries, citrus and flint that are echoed on the medium to light bodied, crisp, dry palate. A fine example of this much overlooked style. (12 x 75 cl)

Chateau La Freynelle Bordeaux Clairet
Situated in the Entre Deux Mers, Château La Freynelle is a 75 hectare estate, with a mixture of clay and limestone soil. Sourced from vines planted in the early 1980's which are Single or double Guyot trained depending on the strength of the vine and density of the planting which yield 55 to 60 hl/ha. The grapes are picked at full maturity. They are destemmed then placed directly in vat and left to macerate for between 12 and 18 hours depending on the richness of the harvest. The free run juice is bled, drawing off 10% of the must to make the clairet, the remaining must becomes red wine. The selected must is then vinified in the same way as the white wine: racked off its heavy lees, and the cold liquid is placed in vats, selected yeast are added and the temperature is controlled throughout the fermentation, stabilisation and clarification phases. Brilliant deep pink colour with an aromatic nose reminiscent of red fruit . Very elegant palate with a good balance between freshness, vigour, delicacy and red fruit with a clean, crisp finish.
