Description
Cabernet Sauvignon in all its glory.
Since the exceptional 2000 vintage and all the years that allow it, at Château Haut Breton Larigaudière, a special cuvée has been produced. It was named “Le Créateur,” a translation of the Flemish family name of the owners, “De Schepper.” Le Créateur was produced in 2000, 2001, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2015. The grape variety consists exclusively of Cabernet Sauvignon.
Vinification and aging
Cold pre-fermentation maceration, 15 to 30 days in vats. Each operation is adapted according to the vintage and the raw material. Each vat is analyzed independently. Tasting of the juices follows the tasting of the grapes and the health assessment carried out in the vineyard and determines the applied process. The batches intended for the cuvée “Le Créateur” are aged for 18 months exclusively in new oak barrels.
