About the estate:
Bergerac, in the far southeast of the appellation: from his organically farmed plots on the limestone plateau and deep clay hillsides, Julien Auroux looks to the future with confidence. His wines have turned their backs on the Bergerac tradition of imitating Bordeaux reds while ignoring the soil. On the contrary, he is committed to salinity, frank and precise aromatic expression, indigenous yeast, and almost no added sulfur. He is rehabilitating grapes from the past for a return to the future. The range draws on the acidity of the soil for a digestible presence and has taken a step up this year.
