The typicity of a red wine from Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux
The estate
Ideally located in the commune of Saint-Philippe d’Aiguilhe, Château Joanin Bécot is one of the finest references of the Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux appellation, on Bordeaux’s Right Bank.
Vineyard
Château Joanin Bécot comes from a nearly 13-hectare vineyard planted to Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Rooted in superb asteriated clay-limestone soils, the old vines averaging 40 years of age give rise to an excellent Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux wine.
Winemaking and aging
Plot selection. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks with manual punch-downs. Maceration for about 35 days. Racking by gravity and malolactic fermentation in barrels. Aging in new barrels (50%), once-used barrels (10%), tanks (25%) and amphorae (15%).
Grape varieties
This Château Joanin Bécot 2018 is a blend of Merlot (75%) and Cabernet Franc (25%).
