The "Entre amis" cuvée: The joy of sharing

At the heart of our philosophy at Château Cazebonne, the pleasure of tasting is inseparable from sharing. It is precisely this simple and authentic joy that we wanted to capture with our "Entre amis" range of wines. These cuvées are an open invitation to conviviality, designed to be enjoyed in the present moment, around a set table or during an impromptu aperitif.

Diversity is the watchword for this collection. Whether you are a fan of red, white, or rosé, or you wish to celebrate special moments with our sparkling wines, "Entre amis" has something to satisfy every desire. These are young, lively wines that express themselves frankly through their fruit, offering a freshness and accessibility that charm from the very first sip. Their vibrant aromatic profile and suppleness on the palate make them ideal, fuss-free companions for all your shared moments.

These wines are the result of our deep commitment to organic farming and respect for our Bordeaux terroir. Every bottle you taste is a reflection of our passion and our daily work to craft healthy, living wines. By choosing our "Entre amis" cuvées, you are actively participating in supporting sustainable and environmentally friendly viticulture.

Your support is, moreover, essential in allowing us to carry out a project that is particularly close to our hearts: the replanting in Bordeaux of ancient grape varieties, once forgotten, which nevertheless form an integral part of our region's winemaking history. This work of rediscovering and preserving the ampelographic heritage of Bordeaux, detailed in the book "Bordeaux, une histoire de cépages" by Jean-Baptiste Duquesne published by Éditions BBD, is made possible thanks to the enthusiasm of the many wine lovers who, like you, have adopted and enjoyed our wines.

Introducing the Entre amis range

The "Entre amis" cuvée perfectly embodies the philosophy of Château Cazebonne: to offer convivial, accessible wines, always with great drinkability. It comes in different colours, each designed for a shared moment. The 2022 vintage of our red Graves is an excellent example of this approach, ideal for an aperitif or a fuss-free meal. It is the wine you bring out when friends arrive unexpectedly, destined for memorable and joyful moments.

A promising 2022 vintage

After two years marked by difficult climatic events, notably frost and hail, the 2022 vintage finally allowed the Château Cazebonne project to fully blossom. The weather conditions favoured an excellent ripeness of the grapes, which is essential to achieve the aromatic profile and structure desired for this cuvée. This vintage represents an important step in realising our vision, particularly thanks to the collaboration with committed winegrowers like David Poutays from Clos de Mounissens.

The Graves terroir in the spotlight

The red "Entre amis" cuvée comes from our plots located on the Graves terroir. This unique soil, characterized by its rolled pebbles and its clay-gravel composition, plays a fundamental role in the expression of our wines. It imparts specific aromas and a beautiful minerality to the grape varieties. The typicity of our Graves wines is thus transcribed in this cuvée, offering a fine illustration of our respect for the terroir and our sustainable viticulture.

Winemaking and ageing favouring the fruit

For the "Entre amis" Graves red 2022 cuvée, winemaking is carried out with particular attention to preserving the fruit and freshness. Composed of 55% Cabernet-Sauvignon and 45% Merlot, the grapes are harvested at perfect ripeness. We favour winemaking using indigenous yeasts with low fermentation temperatures, in order to gently extract the aromas and tannins. The ageing is designed to retain the "crisp" side of the fruit and the perfect drinkability that characterize this cuvée. It is in our cellar that these choices truly make sense.

A delicious and fresh tasting profile

The 2022 "Entre amis" cuvée is a delicious and fresh red wine with remarkable balance. On the nose, it reveals the intense fruity notes of Cabernet-Sauvignon and Merlot, complemented by a touch of freshness. On the palate, it offers a supple texture and great drinkability, with flavours of crisp red fruits. It is a wine without artifice, appreciated for its straightforwardness and its ability to bring people together.

Food and wine pairings for guaranteed conviviality

"Entre amis" is a versatile wine, designed to accompany a multitude of shared dishes. It pairs wonderfully with a rustic charcuterie board, grilled beef skewers at a barbecue, or even an artisanal pizza. Matured cheeses like Camembert are also excellent companions. In short, it is the ideal partner for convivial meals and moments of relaxation with friends of Cazebonne. Find other delicious pairings in our journal.

The packaging: the "Entre amis" spirit

The visual design of our "Entre amis" cuvée reflects the mindset of the range: simple, modern, and inviting to share. Each label is designed to evoke the ease and joy of tasting, without complexity. It is a bottle that has been highlighted by a musical collaboration with the artist GAB, emphasizing its festive and unifying character.
