history
The Dubard Family for more than 30 years, has been the most famous producer of refreshing and reasonably priced wines in South-West France. The family members offer differing personalities of graduate oenologists, winemakers, and viticulturists who together make up a dynamic and passionate team that has been renowned in the Bergerac wine region for decades. Being receptive to their terroir, combining common sense and long experience with ceaseless wine-making and viticulture: are the founding principles on which the family has relied in their exceptional cuvées. They are also ongoing on the environmental label "HVE" (High Environmental Value).
Vineyard
The Dubard family settled down as winemakers in the Bergerac region, in the
late 70s. A situation of these vines on calcareous-clayish hillsides exposed to
sunlight (South South-West), and a trellising thoroughly adapted to the spacing
between rows maximize maturation. Sustainable farming leads to the
protection of the environment and of the “terroir” personality. It also guarantees
an excellent sanitary state of the crop, and thus its final quality.
Winemaking
After de-stemming and crushing, the grapes are directly transferred to stainless
tanks upon their arrival in the cellar. The temperature is first maintained rather
low (15°C) for a few days, to maximize flavor extraction. The juice then
undergoes a short (2 weeks) and rather cool (26°C) fermentation, during which
daily pumping-over is realized. Such a short maceration run with quite low
temperatures preserves fruity aromas and supple tannins. As soon as the
fermentation is finished, the wine is drained into stainless tanks, where the
malolactic fermentation and the ageing are carried out, prior to the components
being racked out and blended.
Tasting notes
The Pech de Neyrat reveals a bouquet of red fruits on the nose, a
the potential that is confirmed on the palate by notes of blackcurrant and
undergrowth with a smooth, full-bodied attack and vanilla and spicy
fragrances on the finish.
Food pairing
This deep, intense red wine is a wonderful accompaniment to terrines, red
meats, confits, duck breast, cassoulet, grilled poultry, or poultry in sauce, as
well as many pieces of cheese.
Pech de Neyrat is best enjoyed at a serving temperature of 64°F, and enjoyed
in its youth (5 years of ageing potential)
