Tasting notes: Very beautiful deep red colour, aroma of very ripe fruits, blackcurrant, blackberry, round and warm on the palate with a lot of spices. Although it’s already pleasant, this wine is presently still a little young, and offers keeping potential for 10 years.
About the Winery
'Since 1743 our family has been handing down from generation to generation this passion for the wine-grower’s trade, respect for our terroirs, precious know-how, and a quest for excellence. On 8th June 1877, Zaccharie and Marguerite Geoffray bought Château Thivin and its two hectares of vineyards surrounding the estate (Le Clos). Each succeeding generation would contribute new plots of land to build up the estate and would develop the growing and wine-making methods. Today, the 5th and 6the generations of the Geoffray family run this small family business, work the estate’s vineyards, and vinify each wine, respecting the terroir of its origin as the seasons change. Today, Claude Vincent is happy and proud to take his three grandchildren Tobias, Nicolas, and Florina into the vineyards and the cellar so as to initiate them in the secrets of the craft and give them a taste for working the land.'
