Chateau La Canorgue, organic wine, Cotes du Luberon, red

enlarge Chateau La Canorgue, organic wine, Cotes du Luberon, red, 2009 This is a full-bodied organic wine which is a deep radiant red. It has complex aromas of red and black berries and wild Provencal herbs. Winemaking The grapes are manually harvested, half of them are destemmed, the other half is fermented with the panicles in their own yeasts for 8 to 10 days. After this, they are pressed with a pneumatic press, the malolactic fermentation (transformation of the malic acid into lactic acid) follows some weeks later. The young wines mature for 4 to 6 months in large wooden casks which allow very little wood aromas to be transferred to the wine. Chateau la Canorgue With a great deal of diligence and idealism, Jean Pierre and Martine Margan have turned a dilapidated old building, which didn’t have a wine cellar, and neglected vineyards into an exemplary wine estate. Whereas the neighboring wine-growers use a lot of fertilizers and chemicals in order to harvest 60 to 70 hl per hectare, at the Chateau la Canorgue they are satisfied with about 30 to 35 hl. It is no secret that small harvests have a positive effect on the quality of the wine. Thus it is not surprising that the Margans were named wine-growers of the year relatively quickly by the Gault-Millau. They have won so many prizes that it is almost impossible to count them, for example gold medals in Macon, Paris, Avignon, the Coupe de Coeur in the Guide Hachette. Did you know that the movie “A Good Year”, starring Russell Crowe, was filmed on the Chateau la Canorgue!
