Cuvée 58
The number 58 is a nod to 1958, the year in which Roger Bouey founded Maison Bouey. This marked a turning point for the Bouey Family. This highly symbolic wine could not be made anywhere but in the magnificent vineyards of Bordeaux, where the family first planted its vines, and where they have thrived.
Tasting Notes
This wine offers a clear and brilliant garnet color. The nose is marked by fresh fruits, red currant, cherry and blackberry. On the palate, it is ample, supported by supple and silky tannins without any astringency. It ends with a long, fresh finish.
Vineyards
The Bordeaux Appellation encompasses the whole of Famille Bouey’s vineyard, a very large geographical area with a great diversity of soils and terroirs where Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Carménère, Merlot, and Petite Verdot are grown. The oceanic climate preserves the vines in winter with mild temperatures, while average rainfall is spread throughout the year.
Winemaking
The harvest was conducted mechanically, followed by traditional fermentation and winemaking. The wine then matures in French Oak vats in order to preserve, as much as possible, the fresh and fruity aromas and flavors.
