THE PROPERTY

Les Chais du Port de la Lune are the result of an original approach by Laurent Bordes and Annica Landais-Haapa. A blend of talents and grapes. These, harvested from all over France, offer us after vinification (as incredible as it may seem, in a vegetated bunker in the historic district of Bacalan in Bordeaux), a blend of very good quality. 10 winegrowers, in organic farming or in conversion, spread over 8 different regions. PS: “Les chais du port de la lune” (in homage to Bordeaux and its crescent shape along the Garonne) is the only cellar where wines are vinified and aged in Bordeaux.

WINE

“Because of its name, we wanted to seek more density in this second Bordeaux cuvée. To do this, we took the most qualitative part of the CANON cuvée. As a reminder, its identity is rich and complex and does not resemble any classic blend: we drink in the soul of the place and the history, of the grandfather who worked his vines in complantation and agro-forestry. In our vat, a dozen grape varieties have come together to harmonize and find their aromatic harmony. A nice fight between white (about 5%) and red which sets the tempo with red fruits and some unexpected notes of white-fleshed fruits. Then, 33% of a Cabernet Sauvignon from the Côtes de Bourg reinforces its structure and its mouthfeel. To calm all these little people, we also pushed the aging to 9 months with a mix of containers (terracotta jar and 300-litre barrels). The result is only finer and more elegant. A beautiful depth that emerges on a wine that stays no matter what, and it is our trademark, fresh and digestible.
