Grand Vin de Château of Ricaud - Cadillac Cotes de Bordeaux - 2012
The meticulous restructuring of the Ricaud vineyard is bearing fruit in this complex vintage. The vines planted on a beautiful terroir predominantly clay-limestone, performed very well despite the important water variations. Climatic conditions, ideal starting in August, have given rise to the hopes of a very beautiful vintage, confirmed today by the tasting of the different lots. The reds were harvested at the beginning of October in a short time to enjoy the beautiful days of the beginning of the month. They present a supple and balanced material, carried by a rich aromatic richness.
