Product information "Château Teyssier Saint Emilion Grand Cru 2018"
CHATEAU TEYSSIER is one of the largest selling Saint Emilion Grand Crus. The wine is made to high standards using the same equipment and methods that are used for our top-end Single Vineyard wines. We hope that our clients see this as a real 'Sunday Claret' - but every Sunday!
GRAPES
70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc
VITICULTURE
The wine is a combination of a number of parcels based in the South West plain of the Saint Emilion Appellation that have been accumulated since 1994. This "terroir'; composed of mainly sandy gravelly soils, helps produce the wine's approachability. The bulk of the vineyard is near to CHATEAU MONBOUSQUET.
VINIFICATION
The vines are pruned on the double guyot system. The secondary shoots are removed and green harvesting completed in order to achieve a low crop. The grapes are handpicked into small trays before transfer to the winery. CHATEAU TEYSSIER is handpicked having had green harvesting to ensure concentration. The grapes are sorted - firstly by bunch and then, after destemming, grape by grape. Only conveyors are used to transport the grapes and the wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks after cold maceration. The wines are aged in French oak - a quarter of which is new.
ANYTHING UNUSUAL
We live at CHATEAU TEYSSIER, so it's a family harne. You're as likely to see cats and children as much as winemakers trying to look busy. We make 15,000 cases of this wine and it's fairly priced so you'II see it in a number of different places - First and Business on airlines, Wimbledon, backstage at the greatest Rock & Roll band, and the pour for the leading Formula 1 team, to name a few.
