Vignoble Millaire Château Lamarche Canon 2021
A deep yet crystalline biodynamic Canon-Fronsac, layering ripe dark fruit and spice over fleshy texture, polished oak and striking fresh persistence.
🍇 About the wine
Château Lamarche Canon 2021 comes from 40-year-old vines rooted in clay-limestone hillsides. Merlot forms the heart of the blend, complemented by Cabernet Franc and Malbec for aromatic lift, structure and nuance.
Fermentation takes place in cement vats with native yeasts, without added sulphites and with very gentle extraction. Twelve months of ageing across barrels, large oak casks and amphora brings complexity while preserving precision, balance and freshness.
