Château Coudray-Montpensier, Chinon, 2018 - 75cl
VINEYARDS
The property comprises of 30 hectares of vines which are situated
on the left bank of the river Vienne. The grapes grow on varied
soils in the Chinon appellation, and thrive depending on the type
of vintage. In dry and hot years, the vines are best suited to clay,
limestone soils. In the wetter and cooler years, the vines grow
better on sandy soils. The Cabernet Franc used to make this
Chinon is sourced from 14 hectares of vines grown in the finest
vineyards in the Chinon appellation.
VINIFICATION:
The grapes were destemmed and placed into stainless steel tanks
where they underwent a cold (10°C) pre-fermentation
maceration for up to five days. This increased the extraction of
aromas and soft tannins. Temperatures during the alcoholic
fermentation did not exceed 22°C. The wine underwent full
malolactic fermentation. Following racking, 10% of the wine was
aged for 12 months in oak barrels to lend some weight and
richness to the finished wine.
