Yves Beck

Dense garnet red with purple highlights. An inviting, pleasant bouquet with fruity and spicy notes. A delectable, fresh attack. A juicy, balanced, refined wine with good tannins. The latter are perfectly integrated and provide a fine backbone to the whole.

Dark red color. Good intensity. Beautiful. Clean nose of medium intensity, fruity, sun-kissed, creamy. Delicate on the attack, melting as it develops, very, very aromatic, delicate and meticulous in texture, the wine unfolds with nobility and depth. It’s superb. Blend: 70% merlot, 30% cabernet franc – Surface area: 1.16 ha.

Description

The expression and delicacy of a Pomerol wine

The property

The story of the Château La Connivence is above all a story of friendship with three wine-loving friends who decide to create a "very good wine". The superb Pomerol appellation then becomes the cradle of this connivance that unites the three owners: Johan Micoud, former international footballer, Matthieu Chalmé, former player of the Girondins de Bordeaux and Alexandre de Malet Roquefort, owner of the Château La Gaffelière in Saint-Émilion. 

The vineyard

A garden vineyard, Château La Connivence is a real little gem: 1.40 hectares located on a very large terroir of Pomerol, emblematic land of merlot, the flagship grape variety that covers 65% of the estate's land. The château has also chosen to plant cabernet franc, which represents 35% of the vineyard. On this gravel terroir combining fat gravels, fine gravels and clayey sand soils, the 3 friends immediately sense that the perfect conditions are met to be able to produce a very great Pomerol red wine. In order to preserve this precious terroir, the vines are exclusively worked by hand and managed using sustainable agriculture.

Blend
