Les Chartrons – Bordeaux Rouge
Les crémants de Bordeaux sont des vins "mousseux" blanc ou rosé. Issus de la région de l'Entre-Deux-Mers, les spécificités de ces vins sont fortement liées à leur terroir ainsi qu'à l'influence climatique océanique et tempérée de la région. Situés entre la Garonne et la Dordogne, les vignobles de crémant bénéficient d'un taux élevé d'humidité essentiel à leur élaboration, selon la méthode champenoise.
The Chartrons was the port for the Bordeaux wine business, situated at the edge of the Garonne. In the 17th and 18th centuries, merchants from northern Europe set up there to export the region’s wines internationally. The Chartrons merchants spread the fame of Bordeaux wines throughout the world. Our range Les Chartrons has become the ambassador for the wines of Bordeaux thanks to its authenticity and the strong symbolism it carries.
