The Grape/Blend

Cabernet Sauvignon

Chocolate, vanilla, black currant, cedar, pepper and high tannins Cabernet Sauvignon is the jet setter of grapes. It travels all over the world, but being a late bloomer, it thrives in warm climates. When it matures, it is famous for intensity and depth of taste, balanced with a solid acidity due to the gentle ripening.The tiny, thick-skinned grape is packed with flavour, dark blue colour and tannins. Grown all over the world, the flavours vary. In France, it is often blended with the softer Merlot or the cooler Cabernet Franc, and is usually a bit higher in acidity.In the southern sphere

The Producer

Bernard Magrez

A life’s combat Bordeaux,1936. War hadn’t yet broken out in France, but it wouldn’t be long before it reared its ugly head. It was during these troubled times that Bernard Magrez was born. A strict upbringing taught him his first lessons in life. But being taught lessons without properly learning from them served no purpose for him. Amidst the turmoil, his vision was clear, and an extraordinary inner strength took root in him. At 16, he left school and went into the wine trade. As a completely self-taught young man, his greatest allies were his self-discipline, riAgour and the knowledge he acquired from his books. Bernard Magrez was already the Bernard Magrez we know today. life’s combat Bordeaux, 1936. War hadn’t yet broken out in France, but it wouldn’t be long before it reared its ugly head.

Over the centuries, wineries here aided t...
