Background
The Chateau de Landiras was entirely restructured in 2007 by its owner Michel PELISSIE. It is a reference
vineyard in the Graves appellation. It is one of the only vineyards in the area that has a density of
planting of nearly 9,000 vinestocks per hectare, which allows us to carefully select grapes in order to
obtain a higher concentration and an optimal ripeness of the fruit.
The vines are traditionally grown and worked using responsible farming techniques in order to make a complex wine. Thanks to parcel selection and fermentation in thermoregulated tanks, our wines always come from steady quality blendings. Our wines are awarded in the best national and international contests on a regular basis (Guide Hachette, Concours des Grands Vins de Macon, Vinalies, Decanter ...).
A little bit of history: Our vineyard has a 700-year-old history and is an emblematic plac in the area: it was once the residence of Jeanne de Lestonnac, founder of the Compagnie Notre Dame in the 17th century. It has become a place of pilgrimage and it now pays tribute to this incredible legacy by producing the Jeanne de Lestonnac vintage, true elixir elaborated in an underground cellar, as the great Pessac Leognan wines.

Tasting notes
Strong color, spices, chocolate, vanilla and ripe fruit smell (black cherry).
In the mouth, the first taste is soft and the final has melted, non-aggressive tannins.
Vinification
12 months in French oak barrels, which gives the wine a more complex range of aromas and soften its structure.
Some more time in tanks to preserve the aromas of the fruit.
Then cold maceration to extract aromas and color. A final maceration at a higher temperature follows, softening tannins and giving the wine a certain sweetness. Fermentation period: about 3 weeks.
