Bordeaux Classic Appellation Trio

Classic Appellation is built on the premise that the Bordeaux AOC — the broadest appellation in the region — can deliver genuine typicity. The Bordeaux AOC draws from vineyards across both the Left Bank's gravelly, free-draining soils and the Right Bank's

clay-limestone plateaux, conditions that push vines to moderate yields and produce fruit with the region's characteristic dark-berry concentration and firm structural backbone.

The blend follows the traditional Bordeaux model, combining Merlot for plush mid-palate weight with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc for tannic grip and aromatic lift. Vinification follows conventional Bordeaux practice: temperature-controlled fermentation and aging in a combination of tank and oak to preserve freshness while adding textural depth.

What distinguishes this expression is its explicit positioning as an entry point to the Bordeaux appellation system — the word "Classic" signals deliberate accessibility without sacrificing the Left/Right Bank blending philosophy that defines the region.
