The range includes both red and white wines, which show two different sides of Bordeaux's grapes. Merlot and Cabernet Franc are important in the red cuvées, while Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon are included in the whites. The individual wines therefore have different needs at the table. It is more enlightening to look at the grapes and the cuvée than just at the word Bordeaux.

The same variety can express itself differently depending on the climate, ripeness at harvest and aging in the cellar. Therefore, use the specific tasting description together with the grape's name.

A fresh wine can provide a counterpoint to butter or cream, while a fuller texture can complement pan-fried fish, poultry or roasted vegetables. Avoid very sweet glazes and strong vinegars, so the food does not overpower the wine's balance. Taste a small glass with the dish: salt and fat can make both the fruit and acidity taste different than they do on their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWine facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eProducer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eChâteau de La Grenière\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e2025\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eRegion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eBordeaux\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eIGP Atlantique\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWine type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite wine – Blanc de Noirs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eGrapes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e100% Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSoil\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eClay and limestone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eAging\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eAged in oak\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eServing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e12–14°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRead more\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/bordeaux-vinomraade\"\u003eBordeaux: grapes, blends and food\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/chateau-de-la-greniere\"\u003eChâteau de La Grenière – the Dubreuil family in Lussac\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Château de La Grenière","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55318840508743,"sku":"52076-25","price":220.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/0619\/6551\/files\/vinea-fritlagt-63090798657863.png?v=1793373350"},{"product_id":"esthete-du-chateau-de-la-greniere-2023-rouge","title":"Esthète du Château de La Grenière Rouge 2023","description":"\u003ch2\u003eEsthète du Château de La Grenière Rouge 2023\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEsthète is a small cuvée from Château de La Grenière in Lussac Saint-Émilion.

Taste the wine both on its own and with food, as salt, fat, and spices can alter the perception of fruit and structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to choose the food\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a red wine, the preparation is often just as important as the ingredients.

Lighter dishes with herbs can instead highlight the aroma and freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWine facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eProducer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eMauperier\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWine type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eRed wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eGrapes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eAppellation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eAOC Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eAlcohol\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e14.5%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBottle size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e0.75 l\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eOrganic\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eProduction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 4,500 bottles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRead more\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/mauperier\"\u003eAbout Mauperier\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/bordeaux-vinomraade\"\u003eAbout the Bordeaux wine region\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mauperier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55570555470151,"sku":"53104-22","price":297.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/0619\/6551\/files\/vinea-fritlagt-63139669901639.png?v=1793373428"},{"product_id":"mauperier-la-vie-de-chateau-rouge-2020","title":"Mauperier La Vie de Château Rouge 2020","description":"\u003ch2\u003eMauperier La Vie de Château Rouge 2020\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLa Vie de Château 2020 is a Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux with Merlot as the backbone.

Ana had previously worked with wine at Château Barbanau. Mauperier is located in Les Salles-de-Castillon and owns 15 hectares of vineyards. The range extends from appellation wines with Merlot at the center to white wine and a no-alcohol red wine. The individual cuvées have their own production and character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRegion and soil\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCastillon-Côtes de Bordeaux is located east of Saint-Émilion on the right bank of Bordeaux. Mauperier's vineyards are predominantly on south-facing plateaus and slopes at an altitude of 50–80 meters. Sand and silt in the topsoil lie over a clay-rich subsoil. The topsoil allows water to drain through, while the clay can retain moisture during dry periods. Here, Merlot holds a central place in both the vineyards and the wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduction\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from 35–45 year old vines. Fermentation takes place in concrete, after which the wine ages for a total of 15 months, partly in French oak barrels. Contact with the grape skins during fermentation provides color and tannins. The subsequent aging brings together the fruit and structure, while the barrel portion contributes to the spicy expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFood and wine\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🥩 Meat dishes:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBraised beef cheeks with red wine sauce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eGrilled rack of lamb with rosemary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRoasted duck breast with mushrooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🥬 Green and vegetarian:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAubergine gratin with tomato and parmesan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMushroom ragout with lentils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBaked portobello mushrooms with thyme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eServing and storage\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe at around 16 °C in a spacious glass. Taste upon opening and give the wine a little air if the aroma seems closed. The producer's recommended aging potential is 5–10 years from the vintage year with proper storage. The wine can be enjoyed now, especially with food that has body and umami. Store the bottle in a dark and cool place at a stable temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe wine in the producer's range\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMauperier is located in Les Salles-de-Castillon and works with several expressions of Bordeaux's grapes. The range includes both appellation wines from Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux, Vin de France and a no-alcohol red wine. These categories each have their own framework. Merlot's round fruit is recurring in several red cuvées, but the blend and production vary. The white Irrésistible combines Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc and should be understood on its own terms. The cuvée is therefore a better starting point for the choice than an expectation of a single house style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOrigin in perspective\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Bordeaux, the grape blend plays a significant role. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon can contribute different forms of fruit and structure, while the white wines are based on other grapes. The appellation tells about the origin and the framework for production; the cuvée and the vintage give a more precise picture of the bottle. Tannins in a red Bordeaux are often experienced as milder together with food that has protein and fat. A little coolness at serving can also keep the fruit and acidity clearer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe interplay of the grapes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a blend, the grapes contribute different characteristics. Some can provide fruit and body, others freshness, aroma or tannin. It is the overall balance in the glass that is interesting, and not just which grape makes up the largest proportion. Aging and bottle storage can also change which nuances stand out most clearly. Taste the wine both alone and together with food, because salt, fat and spices can shift the experience of fruit and structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to choose the food\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a red wine, the preparation is often just as important as the raw ingredient. A sear, mushrooms and a sauce with a little depth can bring together the fruit and tannins, while very sweet side dishes can make the wine seem sharper. Feel free to choose a dish from the suggestions above and keep the seasoning in harmony. If the wine has firm tannins, protein and a little fat can provide a softer experience. Lighter dishes with herbs can instead highlight the aroma and freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFacts about the wine\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eProducer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eMauperier\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWine type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eRed wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eGrapes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e94% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Malbec\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e2020\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eAppellation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eAOC Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eAlcohol\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e15%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBottle size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e0.75 l\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRead more\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/mauperier\"\u003eAbout Mauperier\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/bordeaux-vinomraade\"\u003eAbout the Bordeaux wine region\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mauperier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55570555797831,"sku":"53103-20","price":220.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/0619\/6551\/files\/vinea-fritlagt-63139687924039.png?v=1793373454"}],"url":"https:\/\/vinea.dk\/en\/collections\/bordeaux.oembed","provider":"Vinea","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
