Winemakers Notes
In the dynamic area of Pessac Leognan, La Garde benefits from
a first quality terroir
. It has played a significant role since the vines of the plateau have been replanted, and
has now reached good maturity
. The Pessac Léognan AOC was highly impacted by the frost, but La Garde was not, and has benefited of the great conditions of the rest of the year.
The wine presents great fullness, depth and personality,
which defines a great wine. In that sense, journalists unanimously stressed on the unrivaled level of quality of the cru.
No doubt
it is in Pessac THE great value to discover and speak about among the 2017s !
