The Shades of Cormeil
Product description

This agroforestry cuvée is a unique agronomic and oenological experiment: it is made from the grapes that grow beneath the trees planted on our plots. This close contact brings freshness and feeds the wine’s complexity. Vintage after vintage, the aromas of Les Ombres de Cormeil evolve as the trees grow and our agroforestry winemaking savoir-faire is refined. Blend: 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc. Winemaking: sulphite-free (added only during ageing). Hand-picked grapes, with 50% destemmed by hand and 50% left whole. Sorting, crushing and work on the pressings are carried out manually (pigeage). At the end of maceration, we use a small traditional vertical press. Ageing: aged entirely in fine-grained, lightly toasted French oak barrels, which bring complexity and subtlety to the wine.

What is the + so innovation ?

Born beneath a tree, this wine has the softness of the Shade.
