Bordeaux rouge, François Thienpont - 2018

It opens with aromas of black fruit (blackberry, blueberry), liquorice and fresh mint, with ideal ripeness of fruit. On the palate, the attack is straightforward, with a fine, fleshy texture, enhanced by a healthy liveliness that makes the wine sapid. The finish is delicious and elegant. At this price, this wine is a small miracle, reconnecting us with oceanic, digestible Bordeaux wines!

Viticulture

Situated on the clay-limestone plateaux of the appellation, the vineyard is carefully monitored every year. The vines are on average 35 years old. The vines are grassed over every other row, ploughed traditionally and alternately, and no chemical weedkillers are used. Treatments are positioned and dosed according to disease pressure and the vegetative stage.

Oenology

Vinified by plot, extracted by pumping over and racking. Aged for eight months in stainless steel vats, racking as required.

Suggestions for accompaniment

Beef tartare • Lamb kebabs with cumin and coriander • Saint-Nectaire cheese.

François Thienpont

Domain

As you may know, there are many Thienponts in Bordeaux, but they all come from the same family, which started in the wine trade in 1842 with the grandfather Camille. Today, his descendants are called Nicolas (Pavie-Macquin, Puyguéraud, La Prade), Alexandre (Vieux Château Certain), Jacques (Le Pin) and François Thienpont. The latter is at the head of Wings, which is a reference in the Bordeaux wine trade. The wines he signs under his name express their terroir and their vintage with the greatest sincerity.
