Vin de France - Bordeaux

The Domaine des Trois Petiotes is located in the Côtes de Bourg production area, along the Gironde estuary, on a small, well-ventilated plateau of deep clay. The vines, 45 years old, are cultivated without pesticides or synthetic fertilizers in order to offer you the cleanest possible wines. The three small plots of Malbec, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, covering an area of 3 hectares, are maintained mainly by hand. The soils are naturally grassed and worked with traditional tools. Cultivation practices are aimed at making the soil's life ever richer. Severe pruning allows us to maintain very low yields, a guarantee of quality and concentration of aromas and flavours. Harvesting is done by hand in small crates, with sorting on the vine, in order to bring healthy and intact grapes to the winery. Vinification is gentle and on indigenous yeasts, with no oenological input other than sulphur, used very sparingly, which makes the wines particularly digestible. They are neither fined nor filtered so as not to strip them of their aromas.
