On August 27th 2015, we decided to hand harvest the few grapes we had on our experimental vineyard planted with the new grape variety called Cal 6-04. We harvested only about 100 kilos of grapes and worked on a micro vinification. Imagine how excited we were to experiment new grapes variety in Bordeaux and discover how will taste the finished wines!
3 month later, the wine was ready for bottling: only 40 bottles made
We sent out a few bottles to friends and journalists that visited us during the year and were curious too to taste it.
Richard Hemming visited us in September from UK, he shares his thoughts on our project here:
