Chateau Fergraves, Medoc 2013

Vinous Reverie Notes
A 5 ha estate, Cheteau Fergraves has been in the Roux family since the early 70's, and is located in the heart of the Medoc appellation in the village of Jau Dignac et Loirac. Winemakers for several generations, the Roux family also owns the Chateau La Pirouette, Medoc Cru Bourgeois. In the vineyard, they practice lutte raisonnée, to lessen any impact on their soil and vines. The terroir of Chateau Fergraves is typical of the appellation, with beautiful gravel and clay. At just 5 ha, this estate is much smaller than its neighbors, with Bordeaux varietals that average 25 years in age.
