Description

Only 20% of the Chateau de la Greniere is aged in old oak barrels whilst the remainder is aged in a mixture of steel and concrete vats.  The result is a wonderfully fruit led style of claret that shows complex red fruit flavours, is generous and rounded on the palate and finishes with a lovely balance of power and finesse.   


The history of this chateau dates back to the 17th century and they are generally considered one of the leading lights in the Saint-Emilion satellite of Lussac.  The vineyards are farmed organicially with the utmost care being taken to promote soil health through various biodynamic practises.  The vineyard is planted with a classic right bank mix of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc.

2020 ‘O Font’ Les Deux Cols, Vin de France

Grenache Blend

Les Deux Cols is a joint venture between Ireland's leading Rhone importer, Simon Tyrell and Charles Derain, one time Sommelier to Alain Ducasse at Le Louis XV in Paris.  This Grenache Noir dominated blend is whole bunch and foot trodden, natural yeast fermented in concrete tanks and then matured in a mixture of old barriques and larger demi-muid barrels.  Pale in the glass, this is fresh and easy with red fruits and a hint of spice.  Hand harvesting takes place at least a week earlier than the neighbouring properties allowing for a fresher style, and all vineyards are either organic or in conversion with some biodynamic practices in use.
