Château Thenac


Every once in a while a Château emerges in a less fashionable wine-producing area that punches well above the standards of that particular area. This is the case with Château Thénac from Bergerac.

Situated in beautiful countryside south of Bergerac itself, this 22 hectare vineyard is planted on a clay/limestone terroir on a south-facing slope, allowing for maximum exposure to the sun. With the average aged vines of 30 years, Thénac wines have good complexity and structure and offer a refreshing alternative from Bergerac's more illustrious northern neighbours in Bordeaux.

The Cuvée Prestige White is made up of 75% Sauvignon and 25% Sémillon and is matured in new French barrels, giving the wine refreshing crispness but an exciting complexity. The Cuvée Prestige Red is made from 64% Merlot, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc and is qualitatively, more akin to a right-bank Bordeaux than the wines synonymous with Bergerac.

This might seem a pretty stiff price for a Côtes de Bergerac, but it really is cracking stuff. A blend of merlot, cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc from a top vintage, it is more New World in style than French, with a rich, silky texture and intense, spicy flavours. Massive investment ... MORE

The improvement in this wine, vintage on vintage is staggering. This is thanks to sensible vineyard investment and an excellent winemaker in Ludwig Vanneron. The 2006 has a touch more Malbec then normal, and as such as more complexity and immediate appeal. Opaque in colour, this wine ... MORE
