Owned by the d’Anglade Family for more than two centuries, Château d’Abzac is located 14km north of Libourne, close to the famous Saint-Émilion and Pomerol vineyards..
It is located on the famous « Gunz gravel » terrace, that extends along the Isle river towards Libourne, up to Pomerol and Figeac (Saint-Emilion). It is made up of a basis of clay surrounded by a thick red gravel layer. The stones of this meagre and well-drained soil store heat during the daytime and release it in cooler periods, ensuring a prefect grape ripening. The 35-hectares vineyard is planted with Merlot (90%), Cabernet-Franc (3%) and Cabernet Sauvignon. The average age of the vineyard is 25 years.
Vinified in the purest Bordeaux tradition, in stainless steel tanks with perfect temperature control, Château d’Abzac wines come in three versions.
- Le Bordeaux Supérieur « Réserve ». It is aged for one year in French oak barrels (one third new barrels, one third one-year-old barrels, and the remaining third two-year-old barrels).
- Le Bordeaux Supérieur bred for 2 years in stainless steel tanks before bottling.
- « Les Tours d'Abzac », Bordeaux produced from our youngest vines, also bred for 2 years in stainless steel tanks.
The bottling takes place exclusively at the Chateau.
Château d'Abzac wines are balanced, with a pretty nose of red and black fruits. The palate is well-rounded and supple. Our wines are pleasant to drink the very next year following the bottling, and reach their peak in the fifth year.
Each year, Château d’Abzac wines receive awards and medals.
Château d’Abzac is listed in the Guide Gilbert and on 1001 Dégustations..
