Lot presentation
Château Loudenne Cru Bourgeois 1982
The wine
The red wines are aged in oak barrels for 14 months after traditional vinification; they are then bottled and kept in the cellar for at least a full year before being released onto the market. Through low yields and traditional vinification, Château Loudenne produces rich, balanced wines. They are well-structured and reveal fruity flavours.
About the Producer Château Loudenne
Loudenne's vineyard looks over and gently descends towards the wide Gironde estuary. Thanks to the care lavished on the vineyard and the wines, this property, located in the Médoc appellation area, was promoted to Cru Bourgeois Supérieur status in the 2003 revision of the 1932 classification.
