Château ROLLAN DE BY Red 2015 bottle 75cl

bottle 75cl: 19,50 € incl. VATbottle 75cl

Rollan de By has always been an excellent introduction to the wines of the Médoc, offering each vintage a frank, sapid, velvety and seductive wine without being devoid of finesse, at its best after only 3 to 5 years of aging. Its accessibility as a young wine can be explained by the fact that 2/3 of the grapes are Merlot.

    Known for its red wine, Château Rollan de By also owns 2 ha of alluvial sands on the Gironde estuary, which were planted with Sauvignon Blanc some 30 years ago with the intention of producing a great Medoc white wine.

    The owner, Mr. Guyon, decided to apply to the letter the traditional practices for the elaboration of a neat white wine, in the vineyard (high density of 6500 vines per hectare, 100% grassing, manual harvest in crates...) as well as in the cellar (no fining, no filtration, the wine is only clarified by successive rackings, maturing in French oak barrels...).

    But he has also integrated the qualitative precepts of today's oenology: short pre-fermentation maceration, low temperature vinification, stirring of the lees, minimal sulfiting...

    In a way, the best of both worlds (ancient and modern) are combined to best express the temperate oceanic climate of the northern tip of the Médoc, ideal for white wines: optimal sunshine, mild temperatures without excess, regular rainfall.

    Its 2019 vintage is exciting, with a combination of minty freshness and saline minerality, on a full, creamy and deep palate. The richness that envelops the texture of this wine is reminiscent of Meursault, perhaps that's why it's bottled in a Burgundy bottle?

    By isolating 15 ha of his best parcels, Mr. Guyon, owner of Rollan de By, has created Haut-Condissas, a prestige cuvée to compete with the neighboring Grands Crus Classés of Haut-Médoc. In a rich, powerful and concentrated style, Haut-Condissas must be waited in bottle for a good ten years to reveal its real finesse and great complexity. Reserved for patient wine lovers, but well worth the wait!  For Mr. Bettane "Haut-Condissas is the archetype of super-bordeaux".
