Winemaker’s notes:
Domaine des Geais 2020 Cotes du Marmandais has a bouquet of fresh blackcurrant fruit, with a good intensity of flavors. A full-bodied and well-balanced wine, rich and concentrated.
Consisting of 3 hectares of vineyards located in the Côtes du Marmandais, an appellation just south of Bordeaux, located between the Garonne and Dordogne Rivers in Southwest, France.
Eleanor of Aquitaine (then Queen of England) ordered monks to plant the first vines on this 72 hectare estate in 1150. The property stretches over the right bank of the Garonne river across the hillsides of Saint Michel de Lapujade, and benefits from the mild and humid air that rises up from the sea and travels down the Garonne valley.
Certified Organic | Certified Biodynamic – Green manure seeding, soil tillage. Eco-pasturing with local breed of sheep. Apiary for over 15 years. Pest management by trapping.
