THE COMPANY

he Bourgeois family, one of the leading interpreters of Loire wines with 65 hectares of vineyards, has embarked on an adventure in the Marlborough region, transforming part of 93 hectares of pastureland into vineyards. Only two varieties, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, for this encounter between French tradition and the new world, interpreted in two different ways. The fresh and young Fusional, easy to drink but still in line with New Zealand oenology while the Chapel Peak, with marked minerality combined with depth. These two wines represent in an extraordinary way the tradition of the New World; although far from Saint-Satur’s friendly soil, Arnaud and Cédric Bourgeois, offer fine and elegant wines, perfectly linked to the New Zealand.

Marlborough

What makes Marlborough unusual as a wine region is the combination of long days, cold nights, bright sunlight and, in good years, somewhat dry autumns. With these relatively low temperatures the grapes could hardly ripen given the threat of autumn rains, whereas here they can generally be left on the vine and take advantage of a relatively long ripening period resulting in high sugar content without sacrificing, thanks to the cool nights, acidity. To the north of the area the soils are much newer than those to the south. In some places the water table is dangerously high, and the best vineyards, on these young, stony soils, are those where drainage is greatest, that is, on light, loamy soils above the gravel that once formed the riverbed.
