Originel by Sainte-Catherine

AOC Cadillac Côtes de Bordeaux

The priory of Sainte-Catherine of Artolie used to lie upstream to the north-west. Since the 12th century, the door of the Sainte-Catherine chapel benevolently overlooks this plot of Gironde land that looks out over the River Garonne.

The 56-hectare (138-acre) Sainte-Catherine vineyard flourishes before a panorama that takes in the Garonne valley and the Landes forests beyond.

The specifity of this cuvée “Originel” is that there is non added sulfites. The wine contains only the sulfites naturally presented in the grapes.

Certified HEV3 since 2019 and in transition into organic production.
