Château Fourcas-Borie

The Bruno Borie family, which is also the owner of Château Ducru-Beaucaillou 2e Cru Classé in Saint Julien), acquired the Château Fourcas Dumont in 2009 and from then on named it Château Fourcas-Borie.

This Bordeaux Château is located in the north of Listrac, a village in Haut-Médoc, and disposes of 74 hectares of vineyards in Fourcas and Moulin du Bourg (clay, gravel and lime soil). The average age of the vines is about 30 years.

The investments made by the Borie family in cellar technology and the efforts made in the vineyards, coupled with the know-how of Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, already bore their first fruits with the 2010 vintage. The sum of all these endeavours has resulted in a velvety, already very elegant wine, with a "reasonable" price, which is even suitable for festive occasions.

The cuvée is a classic blend of the following grape varieties: 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Petit Verdot. The grape varieties and parcels are fermented separately in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. The subsequent ageing is carried out for twelve months in partly new and partly used French barrels.

The renowned wine maker Eric Boissenot advises the Château and vinifies its wine.

Bodega Palacios Remondo

Bodega Palacios Remondo

He was born 'at home', right above his father's bodega – Álvaro Palacios, Spains star vintner. The scent of wine and barrels must have been lying in the air and thus dictated his further life. He studied oenology in Bordeaux and gathered professional experience at the Château Pétrus, and in London, Dublin, and California. Today, he owns vines in the Priorat county, in Bierzo, and at home in the Rioja, and proves his extraordinary talent with premium wines year after year.

Distillerie Tessendier & Fils

Grape growers, producers of Cognac and innovative spirits

 

“Time is of the essence for creating high-quality spirits” (Jérôme Tessendier)

 

The Tessendier & Fils Distillery, established in 1880, is a family-run business based in Cognac and Jarnac, on the banks of the Charente, which produces a diverse portfolio of high-quality Cognacs (see Cognac Park) with a modern twist. The heirs, Jérôme and Lilian Tessendier, have succeeded in modernising the family business in the face of the international dimension of the market: first by creating their own brand of Cognac, then by drawing on their ancestral savoir-faire to refine other types of spirits. This knowledge was forged over time, improved from generation to generation and is now shared by the Tessendier Distillery through three Cognac series (Park, Campagnère, Grand Breuil), each with its own unique character, its own history.
