We create wine by applying a few important quality principles: maceration, pre-fermentation, temperature control, limited use of sulphur, and rigorous hygiene, while being patient, being more and more specialised about ageing the wine in barrels: choosing barrel-makers suited to our wines, stirring the lees, using micro-oxygenation if necessary.

We have a range of three red wines, rounded off by a very fruity Bergerac Rosé.

1. Bergerac Red and Rosé: unsophisticated wines that bring out the fruitiness, with crispness for the Rosé and fullness for the Bergerac Red. They are to drink young, from one vintage to the next for the Rosé, and within three to four years for the Red.

2. Côtes de Bergerac raised in oak barrels: Concentration and expression are the key words for this wine. Tannins are present but supple and, after 14 months of barrel-ageing, still let the fruit express itself. To drink after two years, or keep for six to seven years. Ideal with beef or duck breast!

3. La Robertie Haute: Exquisite and concentrated, it comes from one of the best parcels of La Robertie land in terms of maturity. It is aged for 14 to 16 months in new oak barrels.
This wine expresses itself fully after three to four years, and can be kept for about 10 years.
Suggestion: it goes well with loin of lamb or roasted venison!

Distinctions:
• La Robertie Haute 2008: 7 / 20 in the 2012 Guide to the Best French Wines (RVF) (Guide des Meilleurs vins de France 2012 (RVF) – "Mainly Cabernet Franc, the 2008 Roberts Haute plays a very delicate part, orchestrated by discreet but firm aging. Long, mineral, slender, it is an elegant and precise wine, which will improve by aging a few years".
• La Robertie Haute 2007: silver medal at the 2010 Paris and General Agricultural Competition, Silver Medal at the 2010 Independent Winemakers Competition (Concours des Vignerons Indépendants) - 16.5 / 20 in "The Best Wines at Reasonable Prices 2010 ” (RVF) - 2011 Hachette Guide: If it was born in a difficult vintage, the 2007 Robertie Haute has made the best of the situation and charmed the jury thanks to a perfectly controlled 18-month aging in casks. The nose reveals intense aromas of black fruit (cassis), that support the fine woody notes. Both full and supple, the mouth is supported by ripe tannins that are pleasantly harmonious. If the harmony of this wine is already complete, you can also enjoy it in two or three years.

4. Robertie's E's : Exception, Exigency, Excellence are the major words of this great Robertie wine, which will not be made except for the vintages that deserve it. It is the excellent union of an exceptional vintage and a demanding development. Rich, complex, lingering very long on the palate, it is a wine that keeps for a long time.
