"Acte" was born of a dream imagined by the Guinaudeau family, owners of Château Lafleur in Pomerol: to produce a new wine each year, reflecting a particular terroir and vintage. Acte was born in 2009 with Acte 1; 2010 gave way to Acte 2, and so on. It enjoys all the privileges of a "haute couture" wine. The work is undertaken exclusively by the Lafleur teams with rigour and attention. It is a wine of great finesse, a wine for connoisseurs.

Technique

Viticulture

The Fronsac appellation has great terroirs, clay-limestone and sandy limestone which warm up very quickly. The Guinaudeau's wanted to create their ideal vineyard by buying parcels. The idea was to focus on Cabernet Franc. Cultivated area: 3ha. Vines 20 years old. Integrated cultivation. Manual green harvesting adapted to the climatic conditions (thinning out the leaves, thinning out the vines).

Oenology

Manual harvest; double sorting in the vineyard, 3rd sorting in the cellar. Vinification in thermo-regulated stainless steel & concrete vats; gentle maceration, measured extraction. Elaveg 15 months in oak barrels (1/3 new; 2/3 one wine).
