Château Tertre de Viaud, AOP Côtes de Bourg, Red
This wine is made by Jérôme Lafon, a massively competent winemaker who works in complete discretion. He makes wonderful wines because of his attention to details in every aspect of the winemaking process. Nothing from vine to bottle is outside of his consideration. His wines are truly a beautiful and a refined terroir expression…
Presentation
Six generations and nearly two centuries of work have gone into building this superb vineyard. Some serious renovation work and investment in the property began in 1974, financed by the Denechaud family and is continued today by their daughter and son in law Jérôme Lafon. These two young winemakers follow the principals used by their ancestors with the help of today’s technology which not only encourage improvement in quality but respect nature.
