Both the primary and secondary fermentations took place in stainless steel and the wine was bottled after a short period of lees contact which added weight and complexity to the nose and palate

it was decided that this vineyard's yield of 20 hectolitres to the hectare (instead of the more usual 50hl/ha from younger vineyards) was so low that drastic action was required

with graceful acidity and a silky texture

Le Différent de Château de Ferrand, Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, 2012 Malvazia Preta but really comes alive atThe second wine of Chteau de Ferrand, Le Diffrent offers a more approachable expression of this historic Right Bank property. It shows ripe plum and blackberry fruit with hints of spice, cedar and soft earthy notes. The palate is supple and balanced, with rounded tannins and a fresh finish. Its dark fruit and gentle spice make it a great match for dishes with savoury depth, such as mushroom risotto, slow cooked meats or roasted vegetables.
