Winemaker Notes
L’Atlantique is a large wine appellation that encompasses Bordeaux (Medoc, Graves, Entre-deux- Mers, Sauternes, Libourne, Blayebourg, Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderie, Fins Bois, Bons Bois and Bois Ordinaire) and Southwest Cognac. Maison Bouey’s vineyards are located in Medoc, the heart of the region.
2020 was an ideal year for Cabernet Sauvignon, providing the best growing conditions for an exceptional, high-quality vintage. Traditional and modern winemaking techniques were employed, and the wine was aged in French Oak vats in order to preserve, as much as possible, the fresh and fruity aromas.
Interesting Fact
La Cuvee 20 acknowledges the arrival of the fourth generation of the Bouey family. Yann Bouey joined his father, Patrick, and uncle Jacques in the family business in 2020.
