Founded in the heart of the Bordeaux vineyards, with Saint-Émilion as its birthplace, Derenoncourt Vignerons Consultants draws on strong roots that our team are proud to uphold.
The Clos Fourtet cellars (Saint-Emilion, France)
Château Villa Bel-Air (Graves)
Bordeaux remains one of the world’s great wine regions — a place of diversity which extends far beyond the reputation it is sometimes reduced to. From vast estates to small artisan crus, it offers winemakers an extraordinary landscape, dynamic and inspiring in equal measure.
Château Fomplégade (Saint-Emilion)
The Bordeaux vineyard is among the most advanced and technically demanding in the world. Its exacting standards provide invaluable lessons for wine consultants. The quality of training in the region is outstanding, as is the expertise of local viticultural and oenological service providers.
Throughout its history, Bordeaux has shown a remarkable capacity for innovation, with breakthroughs that have often set the standard for others to follow. These recognised strengths provide our consultants with a solid foundation of knowledge, enriched further by experience across France and internationally.
One of Bordeaux’s greatest strengths — and one envied by the global wine community — is its culture of blending. The ability to marry different grape varieties, as well as vines of varying ages planted on contrasting soils, allows winemakers to reveal the authentic character of each terroir.
