Domaine Albert de Conti - Côtes de Bergerac - Chez Paul

ORGANIC

Keywords : Power / Freshness / Elegance

The wine : Chez Paul is a delicious 100% Cabernet Sauvignon whose 12 months of aging in large wooden vats have given it great polish and elegance. This great wine from Domaine Albert de Conti indeed offers lovely breadth on the palate as well as an aromatic profile of remarkable richness. Developing on notes of red and black fruits (black cherry, blackberry, raspberry), these are accompanied by a touch of pepper as well as a beautifully integrated oakiness. The whole evokes a lovely power while maintaining plenty of freshness. A cuvée with silky tannins to open at the table!

The estate : Arriving from Italy to France in the 1920s, the Conti family settled from the outset in the South-West, in the heart of the Bergerac region. From the 1960s, Albert, the youngest of the siblings, embarked on the winemaking adventure and cultivated a few hectares of vines. Francis, Albert's son, succeeded him and for a time managed the vines in a cooperative cellar. In the 1990s, he decided to join forces with his cousin Luc at Château Tour des Gendres, the family's other wine estate created by Primo Conti, Albert's older brother. In 2022, a new chapter began and the estate was finally split in two. Guillaume, Francis's son, then took charge of 30 hectares and created the Domaine Albert de Conti with his brother Paul and Yann Lecoindre, cellar master. The trio work in organic farming and create a delicious range of cuvées. Sometimes serious and complex, but also convivial and festive, these are available as AOC Bergerac and Côtes de Bergerac.
