The first traces of the building that is now Chateau Cissac and the village of Cissac go back as far as the Romans. In fact, the village of Cissac was a relatively important Roman settlement. Tombs have been found in the village and in the grounds dating from the period of Merovee, the father of Charlemagne. However, the house as we know it today dates from 1769 and Chateau Cissac extends over 50 hectares. It is from these vines that the Grand vin Chateau Cissac and its second wine, Reflets du Chateau Cissac are produced. The vines are about 30 years old with 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot grape varieties grown on fine gravel over chalk. Each vine variety does not produce similar quantities each year. However, the proportions on the various single-variety wines that are assembled to make Château Cissac are strictly respected. There are ten huge wooden vats at Château Cissac, constructed in the great Medocain tradition. They and the building which houses them are over 100 years old and were restored in 1997, while these ancient vats have been adapted to meet the requirements of modern oenology by the installation of a system of automatic heat regulation. A deep red coloured wine with complex aromas of dark forrest fruits including black cherry, plum and oak. Rich and generous with great finesse of tannins it has balanced acidity, integrated oak and a long finish. Available in Original Wooden Case. (12 x 75 cl)

Chateau Chasse Spleen Cru Bourgeois Moulis
Description: On the "Route des Chateaux" in the Medoc, just after the village of Arcins, to the left after the famous inn the Lion d'Or, are the vineyards of Chasse Spleen. South of the gravelly brow of Grand Poujeaux, this vineyard benefits from a remarkably well drained subsoil and is superbly well exposed to the hot summer sun. The soil is composed of 80% Garonne gravel on a chalky substratum and 20% chalky clay. Before the vines were planted only extremely rustic cereal like rye grew on this land. The climate is also particularly important. The rainy Medoc springtime constitutes a water reserve in the buried tertiary shelf. A hot summer is hard on the vines, and means that the roots must go even deeper underground for their necessary water supply. The weather and the poor soil are exactly what are needed for the Medoc grape varieties: 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot. The wines, from comparatively old vines, are top class. This is one of the handful of Médoc estates that does not filter either after the malolactic fermentation or before bottling. The best vintages have remarkable depth: cassis fruits, extract, body and texture with a hint of plums and spicy new oak . (12 x 75 cl)

These ancient vats have been adapted to meet the requirements of modern oenology by the installation of a system of automatic heat regulation. The colour is marked by a deep purple red. The bouquet comes to the force once the wine has had time to breathe a little. A little elderberry, blackcurrants and other soft fruits are complemented by aromas of toast and a touch of tobacco to give a complex bouquet. With a little more air aromas of mild spices and some mineral notes develop. On the palate the wine is elegant and has a long, lingering finish. The mineral and fruity character of the wine balances the powerful, ripe tannins. This is definitely a Cru Bourgeois with potential and a long future ahead and is only just starting to open out.

Jean-Marc Brocard JURASSIQUE Chardonnay Bourgogne AC
Description: The Bourgogne Jurassique comes from a blend of different parcels whose the soils are dated from the upper Jurassic geological era. Within the three Geological Chardonnays, the Jurassique is the more classic and balanced. The wine produced on these soils displays subtle mineral characteristics while it is dry, lemony and fresh in style with good acidity and fruity finish it is a wine made to be drunk young. Jean-Marc Brocard's origins lie in the Cote d'Or. For he is a farmer's son from the village of Chaudenay-le-Chateau, not even the son of the vigneron. It was an accident of marriage that brought him to wine, he married Claudine , a vigneron's daughter from the village of St-Bris-le-Vineux in the valley of Yonne. Starting with a hectare of vines from his father-in-law, Emile Petit, he has created an estate of some 120 hectares vineyards in Chablis and Burgundy today. Jean-Marc acknowledges a considerable debt to one of the old vignerons of St-Cyr les Colons, a man Louis Petit, who despite the name is unrelated to his father-in-law. The oldest vines of the Domaine Sainte Claire came from Louis Petit and it was he who gave to Jean-Marc the sense of tradition and a respect for nature, showing him that you can still maintain the old traditions, while practicing modern methods. (12 x 75 cl)
