Wine from Cahors
Filter
The region of Cahors is a 500-kilometer pathway that leads through Quercy creating alluvial soils and fertile valleys thanks to the broken limestone hills in the region. Described as the Sud-Quercy, or Southwest. There are actually ten wine regions that stretch from the Spanish border to central France from the Pyrenees, to the Mediterranean, and the Atlantic. The region consists of 45 villages and 4250 acres and is a compact area that is 40 kilometers wide and 60 kilometers long. The majority of the vineyards, 70% of them to be exact, are located on a narrow strip of land on each side of the Lot River between Cahors and Puy L'Eveque. The wines in this area are very fruity, full-bodied, bold, and powerful. The rest of the vineyards are on the limestone causse plateau above Cahors, tend to less robust, but have the same distinctive finesse and elegance. Most of the hillsides are limestone soils. Because of the combination of soils, which are very conducive to grape growing, and the climate, which is mild with lots of sunshine, vineyards in Cahors produce wines with all of the characteristics of a great vineyard. The region produces inexpensive table wine to some of the most award winning reds and whites in the world.

Maurice Ecard Savigny Beaune 1er Cru Narbantons is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir
Reduced yields from severe springtime pruning, fully mature harvest and manual selection and sorting. Vinification involves partial destemming, classic fermentation, pigeage, racking of the gross lees.
The wine offers black cherry fruits on the nose. Rich and full bodied with a beautiful texture. Flavorful.
Lismore Chardonnay Reserve made from 100 percent Chardonnay.
A careful selection of the best of the vintage that exemplifies the extraordinary terroir of Lismore. This Reserve Chardonnay shows intense citrus, stone fruit, jasmine and walnut layered with honey and vanilla carried by a distinct minerality and crisp acidity with a lingering citrus finish.
Wine Made in the Soil
The vineyards are planted in decomposed shale over clay at 300 meters in the foothills of the Sonderend Mountain Range. A low mean February temperature lends to an extended ripening period that can put harvest 3-4 weeks later than traditional wine growing regions in South Africa. The intense citrus notes and the lingering finish are consistent trademarks of Lismore's specific terroir. The restrained minerality of the Chardonnay is a clear indication of the cool climate in which it is grown.
Wine of Origin "Greyton" has been designated by SAWIS recognizing the special terroir of this region.
Delightful with warm curries which lift the aromatics or a traditional pairing of smoked salmon highlighting the fresh acidity.
Review:
100% Chardonnay matured in Burgundian oak (33% new) for 11 months. This Reserve Chardonnay shows intense citrus, stone fruit, jasmine and walnut layered with honey and vanilla carried by a distinct minerality and crisp acidity with a lingering citrus finish.
