Five Delicious Wines to Try From Bordeaux’s “New Generation” Sarah Tracey

Bordeaux: the mention of this storied French wine region evokes images of ravishing reds sipped by elite wine aficionados in majestic châteaus. Iconic wines meant to age for generations. Special-occasion wines collected and served for birthday and anniversary celebrations, made by a region that takes great pride in tradition and heritage. And Bordeaux is all of those things. But a closer look reveals a place whose wineries are majority still family-run, with a mass initiative towards sustainable farming and a fresh new generation bringing a renegade energy to the traditional foundations of the region. Bordeaux is an unexpected source of affordable, everyday wines: 90 percent of Bordeaux wines are sold into distribution at less than 20 euros. Rich red blends are still the region’s signature (around 85 percent of the production is red), but Bordeaux is also a source of fabulous dry whites, crisp rosés and casual young reds more suitable to sip at barbecues and bonfires than with tasting menus. We can’t discuss Bordeaux without at least a mention of the 1855 Classification. That year, Napoleon III declared that Paris would be home to a massive exhibition to showcase the best French products, and 61 wines from Bordeaux were selected as the top of the crop. Led by the top five-ranked wines, known as the “Premier Crus” (Haut-Brion, Lafite Rothschild, Mouton Rothschild, Latour and Margaux), the 1855 Classification is still held up as a gold standard of Bordeaux. The wines included within the exhibition, called Grand Cru Classes, are still held up as a benchmark and coveted by collectors.

But, today, these 61 wines represent only five percent of the region’s production. There are 8,800 registered wine producers in Bordeaux, and if you’re only seeking the top-rated wines from 166 years ago, you’re missing out on a lot. There’s a new generation of young and passionate winemakers who honor traditions while bringing fresh energy into the future of Bordeaux. Try their wines and you might be surprised: they are stylistically diverse and represent incredible value while still embodying the quality for which Bordeaux is known. Here are five delicious wines from Bordeaux’s “New Generation” to try tonight … Château Roquefort 2020, Bordeaux Blanc Bordeaux’s white wines are primarily made from Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon grapes. Chateau Roquefort’s signature white is 85 percent Sauvignon Blanc, which brings bright citrus notes, and 15 percent Semillion, providing body and a silky texture. Chateau Roquefort recently discovered a 300-millionyear-old fossil bed in the middle of the white wine vineyard and are proud stewards of the land; they are Certified Sustainable and working towards converting to organic farming. This wine opens with floral aromas of jasmine and lemon blossom and has ripe flavors of mandarin and pineapple. Try it with Thai food.

Clarendelle 2020, Bordeaux Blanc Another stunner of a white wine, made by the same winemaking team as Chateau Haut-Brion (one of the famous Premier Crus from the 1855 Classification). Amazingly, you can grab this bottle for around $25 — excellent to bring to a dinner party and of course name-drop a bit. A blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Muscadelle, this is a fresh and creamy wine with flavors of white peach and a savory finish. Try it with sushi.

Château Biac 2016, Côtes de Bordeaux A blend of Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, this wine has notes of red cherry and black plum balanced with hints of chocolate and spice. Owner Yasmina Asseily is originally from Lebanon and brings her Mediterranean background and worldly sensibility to the winery, striving to innovate and adapt to climate change in the region. This wine is a classic pairing with burgers, steaks or lamb chops hot off the grill.

Château Haut-Rian 2018, Côtes de Bordeaux A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, this is an elegant but easy-drinking wine with velvety tannins and a hint of cedar and vanilla in the finish. The Chateau is 50 percent organic, bee-friendly and HVE Certified. Pair this with a charcuterie board, fireplace and a cozy blanket.

Château d’Arche 2009, Sauternes Grand Cru Classé Sauternes is arguably the most famous dessert wine in the world — a jewel in Bordeaux’s crown. Sauternes has sweetness and a thick, luscious texture but is balanced with refreshing, mouthwatering acidity. Chateau d’Arche is innovating the classic production methods: they use a glass barrel for aging the wine, which helps manage sulfite levels and restricts oxygen exposure to promote more longevity in the wine (i.e., staying fresher for longer). With notes of honey, marmalade and stewed quince, it’s a perfect treat with a cheese plate and crusty baguette.

Five Delicious Wines to Try From Bordeaux’s “New Generation” Sarah Tracey

October 26, 2021 Digital

Reviewed: Château La Freynelle, Bordeaux Blanc & Château Biac, Cadillac Côtes Rebecca Murphy Château La Freynelle, Bordeaux Blanc (France) 2020 ($15, Aquitaine Wine Company) Jeân Bârth planted vines in the Entre du Mer region of Bordeaux in 1789. For seven generations the property was passed from father to son. In 1992, the tradition changed with the first daughter in the family since the French Revolution. Veronique Bârthe is the owner and winemaker of Château La Freynelle. Made of 60 percent Sauvignon Blanc with equal parts Semillon and Muscadelle, this is a charmingly delicious wine. It is pale yellow in color and blessed with aromas of ripe apples and peaches mingling with wisps of honeysuckle and Kentucky mint. It is crisp and fresh in the mouth with ripe peach, melon and Meyer lemon flavors and rich texture from the Semillon. It offers great quality for a very affordable price. New house wine, anyone? 95 Rebecca Murphy Oct 26, 2021 Château Biac, Cadillac Côtes de Bordeaux AOC (France) “B de Biac” 2015 ($30, MISA Imports) Now is the time to enjoy this Merlot-dominant Bordeaux blend from Château Biac owned by the Asseily family. It shows alluring aromas of ripe black fruits with notes of dark chocolate and baking spices. In the mouth the wine is smooth and lush with flavors of ripe blackberries and plums with savory notes, beautifully integrated with smooth tannins. Enjoy it with a grilled steak or mushroom ragout. It is from the Cadillac Côtes de Bordeaux appellation, which is a thin strip of land a little more than 37 miles long and 3 miles on the right bank of the Garonne River. I’ve had the privilege of visiting this amazing property twice. As I wrote in a column for WineReviewOnline.com in 2017, their property is a unique site with diverse soils of gravel, clay-limestone, silt and sand that lay upon a layer of chalk. As matriarch Youmna Assiley explained, “On a very small estate, we have the soils of both the Right and Left Bank.” In addition to the unique soils, the vineyard’s aspect and slope allow the air to flow through the vines and along with the presence of Garonne River help to moderate temperatures, providing frost protection. 96 Rebecca Murphy Oct 26, 2021 Château Biac, Cadillac AOC (Bordeaux, France) "Secret de Château Biac" 2010 ($62, MISA Imports) Youmna and Tony Asseily have a beautiful vineyard in the Cadillac region of Bordeaux. They were encouraged to buy the property from a knowledgeable friend, Patrick Leon, former managing director of Mouton Rothschild. He pointed out the diversity of the soils of gravel, clay-limestone, silt and sand that lay upon a layer of chalk. On this very small estate, they have the soils of both the Right and Left Banks. Secret de Château Biac is a sweet wine made from mostly Semillon with a touch of Sauvignon Blanc grapes that are affected by botrytis cinerea, also called Noble Rot. It is a fungus that affects many plants, but if it happens to the right grapes at the right time, it can result in a magnificent wine, like this one. Its golden color gleams in the glass, helping to announce aromas of dried apricots and candied lemon peel. The concentrated fruit flavors of dried apricots and peaches are generous and rich, buoyed by vibrant acidity. It is delicious and interesting enough to savor and contemplate on its own. Youmna serves it with a savory baked pear-cheese dish. 94 Rebecca Murphy Aug 17, 2021

How the Stodgiest Wine Country in the World Became the Most Progressive Kathleen Willcox While the world’s back was turned, France—a country with a wine history dating back to the sixth century B.C., the country that invented the world-renowned wine classification system, the source of arguably the most aspirational and expensive wine in the world for centuries—became one of the most progressive and rebellious wine regions in the world, while still maintaining its legendary rigor and traditions. A recent journey to France helped me understand how these seemingly conflicting paradigms make perfect sense for the world we’re living in now. As I traveled through the Côtes du Rhône, I met farmers and vintners who were no longer content to simply maintain tradition; instead, they were reshaping the landscape, planting new grapes, producing new styles of wine, and transforming their manufacturing processes. Looking beyond the Côtes du Rhône to other top-tier regions across France, this same scene is repeating itself over and over. “Regions like Bordeaux, for example, are focusing on environmental stewardship, but they are also now allowing several other grape varieties that can handle warmer climates and have shorter growing cycles,” says Marika Vida-Arnold, an independent wine educator and sommelier who previously served as the wine director at The Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park. “It’s essential that individual producers, but also regulatory bodies, are now tackling these issues quickly and thoroughly, because the problem is only going to get worse.” Bordeaux Bordeaux, a region that arguably commands an equally lofty place as Champagne in the world of wine, in terms of esteem and prices commanded, has pushed ahead more aggressively in both environmental and stylistic terms. According to new data from the Bordeaux Wine Council (CIVB), there has been a 43% increase in the amount of land certified organic or in conversion in 2020, and 75% of all vineyard area had a certified environmental approach in 2020, whereas only 55% qualified in 2016. And in a move that shocked many, and delighted others, France’s Institute National de l’Origine et de la Qualite (INAO) officially approved the use of six new grape varieties in Bordeaux wines to “address the impact of climate change.” The four reds—arinarnoa, castets, marselan, and touriga nacional—and two whites—alvarinho and liliorila—are much less well-known than the region’s traditional grapes. But all are described by the CIVB as “well-adapted to alleviate hydric stress associated with temperature increases and shorter growing cycles.” For Jonathan Ducourt, the owner and winemaker at Chateau des Combes, with close to 1,200 acres under vine, winemaking is an intrinsically holistic process. “We leave more than 170 hectares [about 420 acres] natural, with forests, lakes, grass fields, hedgets, and wildlife living undisturbed,” he says. “We maintain and restore old windmills, vineyard sheds, and other buildings so they can be used by birds and animals as shelter. We recently discovered 11 different species of bats living around our vineyards.” That biodiversity helps ensure the grapes remain pest-free naturally, says Ducourt, who has also been experimenting with disease-resistant grapes since 2014, and has 13 hectares [32 acres] planted with cabernet jura, a hybrid cabernet

sauvignon, and sauvinac, souvignier, and muscaris. He prunes late for the frost-sensitive vines, and is adjusting his ratios of blends, using less merlot and more cabernet and petit verdot to create brighter, more fruit-forward wines. Groupe Larraqué Vins International, with 212 acres under vine and about 108,000 cases in annual production, is also focused on exploring more modern flavor profiles by using less wood in its aging process and aiming for fresher flavors, says sales manager Julien Salles. “I am also very interested in seeing how malbec and petit verdot add new dimensions to our blends,” he says. “There is a great precision of fruit that is less heavy and very interesting.” At Clarence Dillon and Clarendelle, export manager Erika Smatana says they deploy “strict specifications from partner growers” to ensure no chemical weed killers are used. “We have also initiated an environmental approach at the company level,” she says. “Our warehouse is built of concrete, insulated and covered in solar panels to handle our electricity needs. We have planted a forest of 250 trees and set up beehives to encourage biodiversity” around their estates. These changes are coming—it’s hoped—in time to make a real dent in the damage already done to viticulture by climate change and generations of over-working and abusing soil with chemicals. This year, the French government has reported the smallest vintage in decades, largely due to post-bud frost and hail. And as it turns out, changing the substance and style of wine to suit the planet’s current conditions isn’t just the right thing to do for the environment and the future economic sustainability of brands: It’s the right thing to do for our palates. Two recent studies analyzing independent critics’ scores of 200,000 wines show that eco-labeled organic California wines score 4.1% higher than conventionally grown California wines, and certified organic and biodynamic French wines scored 6.2% higher. Making a good wine doesn’t have to just be about flavor—but that will always matter, and it’s heartening to see that producers who are paying it forward for the planet are reaping benefits in the glass, too.

Fungus concentrates sugars in sweet wine Bennet Bodenstein One thing I could never understand: when wine experts, gurus, aficionados and geeks get together, all they talk about are the great vintages of dry (not sweet) wines of the past, which many of them have never tasted but have only read about. They laugh at the moscatos, sneer at the blush zinfandels and refer to them as gaudy, common, unsophisticated or call them perfumed harlots; and yet, some of the most sought after and expensive wines are sweet. Have you ever heard of Chateau d'Ychem? It is the most famous of all the super sweet Sauternes wines of Bordeaux and a standard bottle of the latest vintage is currently selling for a whopping $350 each, if you are lucky enough to find one. While the wine snobs may have a dismal view of sweet wines, there is a series of sweet wines, classified as dessert wines, that they never seem to mention. These are wines that are served with or as dessert, some of which are still revered by knowledgeable wine people. It has been universally accepted, and in most cases by law, that cane sugar may not be added to a wine for any reason. Wine is made sweet by one of two methods. The most common is stopping the fermentation before all of the fruit sugars have been converted to alcohol, which is the least expensive and results in dull and uninteresting wines. The method used to make the better sweet wines is by allowing the grapes on the vine to be attacked by a fungus. Normally a fungus attack would spell the death of that vintage but not if the fungus is botrytis cinerea and it hits late in the growing season. Rather than ruining the vintage, this fungus concentrates the sugars, allowing the wine to reach an alcohol level of around 14% while also adding a very pleasant set of flavors to the finished wine. This is the technique used to make the famed Sauternes wines of Bordeaux France, the Ice wines and sweet rieslings of Germany, the Tokaji (Tokay) of Hungry and the almost impossible to find, Romanian Cotnari. As a side note, during Romania's time behind the iron curtain, none of that wine was permitted to go west. A friend, who was visiting his family there, smuggled a bottle of Cotnari out for me, in true cloak and dagger style. To those good souls who have not been intimidated by the “experts” and would like to journey into undiscovered regions, I offer two very interesting sweet wines that deserve their time in the spotlight.

Chateau Simon 2015 Sauternes 375 ml ($15.99) If you are new to sweet Bordeaux dessert wines and would like to try some, here is an affordable way to do so as this wine is also available in the half bottle, 357 ml, size. This bottle size presents all of the beauties of a sweet Bordeaux wine while leaving you some change in your pocket, purse or piggy bank. It is a golden-colored, full-bodied wine with an aroma that offers pineapple, applesauce, peach preserves and almond with a touch of lemon. The finish is fruity and balanced by the unmistakable flavor that is part of the contribution of the fungus. If you are having guests over for dinner, try ending it with this wine then sit back and enjoy the compliments. Château d’Arche Grand Cru 2009 Sauternes ($49) The Château d’Arche Grand Cru 2009 Sauternes, while not a Chateau d'Ychem, does offer a hint of what is in store for if you should be fortunate enough to get an opportunity to sample one. This is a full-bodied wine with an inviting deep golden color that opens with the aromas of fresh-cut flowers, honey fruit marmalade and ginger. On the palate and in the finish, the wine offers candied ginger, almond, caramel, a touch of citrus and even a hint of flint. This wine has become a favorite among dessert wine lovers and has also found a new fan; me.

Old & Obscure Is New & Cool in Wine Country Kathleen Wilcox As climate change charts new, unpredictable temperature and weather patterns, the pursuit of outstanding wine means turning to lesser-known grape varieties.

—Kathleen Willcox

Old, rare grape varieties are trending in New World wine countries. The reason? That old bugaboo, climate change. Grapes are delicate, and a change in temperature of a few degrees can turn one capable of producing a robust, bright and complex wine into a purveyor of something flat, flabby and insipid. According to a study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a temperature rise of 2°C could shrink regions suitable for winegrowing by 56 percent; at a rise of 4°C, 85 percent of regions would become unproductive. That same study also finds that adjusting the varieties of grapes grown could reduce losses by half and one-third respectively in those same warming scenarios. On our current path, the United Nation projects that temperatures could increase by as much as 4.4°C by the end of the century. While it may be a stretch to try to find a silver lining amid the increasingly existential gloom of climate change, it is helpful that the need for wine regions and individual producers to expand beyond traditional mainstays, like Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, coincides with an increased openness among consumers to unfamiliar grapes. As the baseline knowledge about wine, especially in the U.S., has increased, the market’s willingness to drink more broadly and widely has increased. Niche red blends have been have been trending even among supermarket brands for years, and according to the 2021 State of the Wine Industry Report from Silicon Valley Bank’s EVP & Founder, Rob McMillan, the growth rate of Chardonnay has been negative for the second year in a row, and Merlot dropped by almost 10 percent. Even the most traditional wine regions and makers are radically revising their planting and growing practices. This year, France’s Institut National de l’Origine et de la Qualite (INAO) officially approved six new grape varieties for Bordeaux, and they are all relatively obscure. The four reds are Arinarnoa, Castets, Marselan, and Touriga Nacional. The two whites are Alvarinho and Liliorila. The Bordeaux Wine Council described the momentous decision as “the culmination of over a decade of research by wine scientists and growers of Bordeaux to address the impact of climate change through highly innovative, eco-friendly measures.” In the U.S., winegrowing is much less regulated. But brands that want to make a living have to grow not just regionally appropriate varieties, but also ones that will move bottles on the market. Until changing tastes shifted planting plans, that meant the largely familiar varieties.

But today, the combination of the warmer weather and the curious consumers means an emergence of obscure varieties across the US. In Napa, Tom Gamble, proprietor of Gamble Family Vineyards, has seen how much the climate has changed since he first began growing grapes back in 1981. In recent years, he has planted highly experimental plots (1.5 acres or less) of atypical Napa choices, such as Syrah and Malbec, and out-of-left-field Koshu and Ambulo Blanc—these latter two, Gamble believes, are first-time commercial plantings in North America. Ambulo Blanc is 97 percent Vitis vinifera, blended of two native North American species—Vitis arizonica and Vitis rupestris—created to produce Pierce’s Disease-resistant grape vines. Koshu is a Japanese white wine grape that Gamble comments is naturally mildew-resistant. “If we don’t keep pushing boundaries, we don’t grow,” Gamble says. “The Ambulo and Koshu show promise. They may not work out. But maybe one will be fantastic.” Larkmead Vineyards, also in Napa, has dedicated three acres to California heritage and Mediterranean varieties, including Petite Sirah, Aglianico and Touriga Nacional, as hedges against climate change. “We chose each of these varietals to bring different qualities that may be challenged for Cabernet Sauvignon in the future such as color and acidity,” comments Larkmead’s winemaker, Avery Heelan. “For example, Charbono has very thick skins and high phenolic content that extends the harvest period beyond Cabernet to reach phenolic maturity. Similarly, Aglianico can have incredibly high tannins but extremely high acidity, so it does best in hot, dry climates, where it can have a long ripening period, well into November.” Others, like Mike Lucia, who launched Rootdown in Cole Ranch, California in 2014, have shaped their brands around an exploration of obscure and rare grapes. With 55 acres under vine, Lucia has 12 varieties in production, or on their way, including Trousseau Gris, Savagnin, Jacquere, Hondarrabi Zuri, Aligote, Poulsard, and Trousseau. “We chose these grapes based on what seems to be the best fit for the climate, exposure and soil,” Lucia explains. “2021 marks the first harvest for several, including the Savagnin and Poulsard, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. But I’ve been very pleasantly surprised and am excited to share them.” The notion of launching a brand with more promising grapes in the ground is also gaining traction in Texas. “We want to grow grapes that love the weather here,” says Texas Heritage Vineyard’s co-founder Susan Johnson. When they planted in 2015, they chose to plant first Alicante Bouschet, and then Souzao because they respond well to the challenges of Texas’ short and hot growing season. “Fruit in Texas doesn’t always have the depth of color and flavor that we need,” Johnson says, noting that’s especially common among the more well-known red varieties. “Both of these grapes are an exception, with thick skins that can stand the high heat. Both are making truly outstanding wines for us.”
