2018 Chateau Heritage Vannieres 'La Cadiere D'Azur' Rouge, France
Located between the village of La Cadiere d'Azur and Saint-Cyrsur-Mer, the Vannieres castle is exposed south-west and preserved to the north by the Sainte Baume massif. In 1957, Lucien Boudot, winemaker in Beaujolais and Rhone Valley, acquired this Domaine which has 33 hectares in production. Eric Boisseaux (his grandson), is working to evolve the style of Chateau Vannieres, combining it with the expertise of modern oenology, while respecting the originality of the terroir and the grape varieties . The soil, composed of marls and limestones, gives fine tannins, powerful and complex bouquets.
