Terroir<\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

The wine, fruit of the earth<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

An interaction between climate and soil conditions creates what is known as terroir.<\/p>\n

On LA CLAYMORE land, our vines are planted in a subsoil of sand and clay (molasses du Fronsadais), rich in iron.<\/p>\n

The 4 hectares pond, extending along at the foot of the slopes, creates a microclimate and attenuates temperature variations, limiting the risk of winter and spring frosts during the growing season.<\/p>\n

The vineyards of La Claymore are in one piece with 2 different sub-soils:\u00a0 the upper plateau and the hillside facing south \/ south-west show a well-draining sub-soil enabling to achieve full ripeness; the foot of the hillside near the pond is cooler and more clayey, and avoids summer water stress.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div>

An ideal soil where the MERLOT<\/strong> grape reigns.\u00a0 The CABERNET<\/strong> grapes have later fructification and grow better on the heights of the hillside, whereas MALBEC<\/strong> adapts well at mid-slope near a small forest, due to its rusticity.<\/p>\n

Our vines are rooted in the sunny foothills of the estate with a temperate oceanic climate, and produce wines of intense color, with a fruity and generous bouquet, structured by powerful and harmonious tannins.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Le vin est le fils du soleil et de la terre, mais il a eu le travail comme accoucheur.<\/em><\/p>\n

From grape to wine<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Encouraging the full expression of the terroir is our main concern.<\/p>\n

In their aromatic expression and flavour, our wines reflect that natural elements specific of their terroir (climate, soil). \u00a0They are also the product of a team \u2013 women and men \u2013 making choices, working and bringing the greatest care in vineyards work through the year, from vine to crushed grape.<\/p>\n

Fran\u00e7ois LINARD, especially with the help of his consulting oenologist OENOTEAM, opted for combining the traditional cultivation methods with the \u00absoft-edge\u00bb technique (stainless steel tanks, hygiene, thermoregulation, micro-oxygenation).<\/p>\n

Final blending is an important and major step, which requires a number of tasting sessions.\u00a0 Our wines are thus newly created every year.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

Le vin est n\u00e9, il n\u2019a pas \u00e9t\u00e9 cr\u00e9\u00e9, et comme un vieil ami il continue de nous surprendre par son \u00e9volution constante et inattendue.<\/em><\/p>\n
