Traditional Bordeaux Craftsmanship
Chateau La Commanderie De Gombeau Bordeaux is made from a harmonious blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. The dominant Merlot grape brings ripe fruit flavors, velvety tannins, and a soft texture, while Cabernet Sauvignon adds structure, subtle spice, and aging potential. The vines, with an impressive average age of 40 years, produce grapes with concentrated flavors and exceptional balance.
The estate spans 40 hectares and maintains a plantation density of 5,000 stocks per hectare. Furthermore, the vineyard follows sustainable viticulture methods to preserve the natural environment while ensuring consistent grape quality. Careful maturity control, strategic deleafing, and precise vineyard management all contribute to the final expression of this refined Bordeaux wine.
Carefully Managed Winemaking Process
The winemaking process focuses on preserving the purity and richness of the fruit. After mechanical harvesting, the grapes undergo light treading followed by cold settling before fermentation. This technique enhances freshness and aromatic intensity. In addition, the wine benefits from a long vatting period of 20 to 30 days, allowing deeper extraction of flavors, color, and tannins.
Frequent pumping-over during fermentation improves structure and complexity, creating a well-rounded wine with excellent texture. The maturation process takes place in underground vats, which helps maintain stability and preserve the wine’s natural fruit character.
Tasting Notes and Food Pairing
