A Classic Bordeaux Blend with Depth and Character

Winery

Château Plaisance is a property with 23 hectares of vineyards in the Bordeaux and Côtes de Bordeaux appellations. The vineyard sits on a plateau surrounding the château and has good sun exposure. Winemaker Ludovic Labarrere creates Merlot-based wines that are wonderfully fleshy and fruit-forward. 

The vineyard is situated on sandy-clay and sandy-gravel soils, which result in smooth and creamy wines. The vines have been trained with a high canopy to maximise sunlight and optimise the plants' photosynthesis, encouraging optimum maturity in the berries.
