Tiny buds 🌱 are making their appearance: this is budburst (aka budbreak), a critical stage for the vines whose fragile buds are at risk of being damaged by spring frosts over the next few weeks. Our vineyards teams are keeping careful watch... #budburst #budbreak #vineyards

Meet Noroît, a single-plot, single-varietal wine made from Petit Verdot at Ch. de Rochemorin (noroît is a north-west wind and refers to to the orientation of the plot in question). Only made in the best years, there are just 1200 bottles available online bit.ly/40pyONy

The En Primeur week starts today in Bordeaux with lots of excitement about the 2022 vintage. Today we’re at Hangar 14 (115 quai des Chartrons) with UGCB and Château La Louvière #enprimeur #primeurs #Bordeaux

Spring flowers like cornflowers, vetch, marigolds and Californian poppies provide soil cover to fight against erosion, encourage biodiversity (herbaceous vegetation offers shelter & cover for birds, small mammals & insects), enrich the soil...and add colour and beauty :-) #spring

EXCLUSIVE: Exciting news, as @67pallmall confirms it will be opening an outpost in Bordeaux with the inauguration set (fingers crossed!) for 2025. janeanson.com/private-member…

The vines have started to flower in our vineyards. The flowers only last a week or two before forming the grapes. Flowering signals the countdown to the harvest, which will take place roughly 100 days later... #vines #vineyards #flowering #grapes #Bordeaux #winesofBordeaux

Ooh la la! We're super excited to share that Les Vignobles André Lurton will be joining our portfolio. They have a exquisite range of wines which we can't wait to share. 🍷🍇🍾 #bordeaux #winetrade #winedistribution #winesupply #drinksindustry #newproduceralert #andrelurton

A few slices of fennel, diced cucumber, a handful of radishes, lemon zest, topped with crispy sesame chicken fillet - a light and delicious dish for sunny summer evenings (and a rather nice wine pairing to go with it!) #wine #foodandwinepairing #winepairing

The warm summer weather has got us in the mood for Italian food. Sun-kissed tomatoes, tasty vegetables and creamy burrata cheese, paired with Château Bonnet Rosé. Find the recipe here andrelurton.com/Art-de-vivre/R… #rosé #roséwine #roséallday #wineforsummer

Ch. Rochemorin - red or white? Our red is highly aromatic (think elderberry and blackcurrant), full of fruit and spice, while the white has fresh citrus and exotic fruit, a kiss of oak and pleasing fullness. Both are perfect for long summer evenings #summerdrinking #summerwines

It's been 'un grand plaisir' hitting the road with Denis from André Lurton Wines this week. The reception to the wines has been fantastic!! We're already looking forward to the next trip and opportunities to explore other parts of the country! Denis Anjuere Vignoble André Lurton Les Vignobles André Lurton 🍇🍷🇫🇷

Value in the wine world isnt universal. Grand old world regions producing wines with loads of value? Sherry -sure.. white Bordeaux.. with other prices rocketing its time. I’ve just listed 5.. I’m convinced.

The grapes are slowly ripening in our vineyards. Gradually, depending on the grape variety, the opaque green berries turn to crimson red or golden yellow. As the berries' sugar levels rise, the acidity drops until the point of equilibrium is reached and harvest begins...

Ever wondered why roses are planted at the end of vine rows? It's to warn the winegrower of an imminent attack of powdery mildew, a disease caused by a fungus which damages grape berries, and to which roses are more susceptible - hence the early warning 📷 David Duchon-Doris
