Maury

Our friend Andrea Franchetti is featured on Robert Parker site by Antonio Galloni who rates the wines by our favorite Tuscan. Tenuta di Trinoro is located in the valley of Orcia and is simply heaven on earth, in addition, the wines are good.
Andrea will be the next winemaker responsible for the 2007 cuvee of Chateau d’Arsac, after Michel Rolland and Denis Dubourdieu.

This weekend, we went to Maury to see Marie and Jean-Roger Calvet. Murielle voted for the presidential elections in Maury and I in Saint Emilion. We were able to see the land we are going to buy and the ones we already did in the district of Lesquerde to complete our palette of terroirs: the granit arenas are promising for our Syrah, Grenache and Carignan.
Today, our project in Maury is close to 60 hectares (148 acres), which in terms of number of bottles is equivalent to 20 (29.5 acres) in Bordeaux!
