Free Fields - White 2015
Château Grand Village is a Bordeaux Supérieur located in Mouillac, north of Fronsac, in Bordeaux . It belongs to the Guinaudeau family , owners of Château Lafleur , the Grand Cru of Pomerol. The family has been established in the region since the 17th century, but the first vintage of Grand Village only saw the light of day in 1980. The 17.8-hectare vineyard is planted mainly with red grape varieties (14 hectares), with a small plot where Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon are grown. Château Grand Village uses the same vineyard cultivation techniques as those used at Château Lafleur.
From the 2013 vintage, a new cuvée produced exclusively from clones of Sauvignon Blanc de Sancerre was bottled. Les Champs Libres , from a plot called Les Acacias, is a tiny production that demonstrates the exceptional quality of the terroir and the talent and ambition of the Grand Village team. The wine is fermented and aged entirely in new Taransaud barrels .
Grape variety: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
