Peyron-Bouché

La Cuvée Peyron-Bouché: the brilliance of the plots revealed

At the heart of our "Les Parcellaires" range, the Cuvée Peyron-Bouché stands out as an iconic signature of Château Cazebonne. It embodies our philosophy of exploring and revealing the infinite nuances of our terroir. This exceptional dry white wine is the result of an audacious and subtle blend, combining the classic structure of Sémillon with the expressive liveliness of Sauvignon Blanc, cultivated here to an advanced maturity.

The name of this cuvée pays tribute to two distinct plots on our estate, whose complementary soils and exposures offer a remarkable aromatic palette. It is in these vines that we select the Sauvignon bunches with extreme rigour, brought to optimal maturity, giving the wine an extraordinary roundness and aromatic complexity, far removed from the sometimes more herbaceous expressions of the grape variety.

Meticulous oak barrel ageing, mastered with precision, chisels and refines the structure of the Cuvée Peyron-Bouché, bringing it an elegance and length on the palate that seduce the most demanding of palates. It is no coincidence that this refined white wine has conquered the wine lists of the greatest Michelin-starred restaurants, where it is unanimously praised for its ability to enhance delicate dishes and offer a memorable tasting experience.

This cuvée is the perfect illustration of our approach to "Les Parcellaires": understanding, respecting and magnifying each plot of land to extract its best, while experimenting with winemaking techniques that reveal assertive personalities. It bears witness to the richness and diversity that the Bordeaux vineyards, and singularly Cazebonne, are capable of offering, off the beaten track.

This work to enhance the terroirs and rediscover these sometimes forgotten potentials is part of a broader approach, that of preserving our viticultural heritage. Château Cazebonne is actively engaged in the replanting of grape varieties that had gradually disappeared from the Bordeaux landscape, an ambitious and essential project for the future of our viticulture. This work is made possible thanks to the unwavering support of the numerous wine lovers who have adopted our wines and who, through their trust, allow us to continue innovating and preserving this richness.

You can find the Cuvée Peyron-Bouché and all of our wines for sale in the Cazebonne boutique.

A plot-by-plot philosophy

La Cuvée Peyron-Bouché is a singular expression within our "Les Cuvées Parcellaires" range, a true signature of Château Cazebonne. It embodies our profound approach to revealing the infinite nuances of our terroir. This dry white wine is distinguished by a precise blend of Sémillon, which provides its classic structure, and Sauvignon Blanc, cultivated to an advanced maturity to develop expressive liveliness and a unique aromatic roundness.

Exceptional terroirs: Peyron and Bouché

The name of this cuvée is no coincidence; it pays tribute to two distinct plots on our estate, "Peyron" and "Bouché". The complementary nature of their soils and exposures offers a remarkable aromatic palette to our wines. It is in these specific vines that we meticulously select the bunches of Sauvignon, allowing the latter to reach optimal maturity. This approach gives the wine an extraordinary aromatic richness and complexity, moving away from the sometimes more herbaceous expressions of the grape variety and fully enhancing the potential of our viticultural terroirs.

Sophisticated winemaking and ageing

The winemaking for the Cuvée Peyron-Bouché is carried out with the utmost attention. Ageing takes place in oak barrels, a technique mastered with precision to refine the wine's structure. This process contributes to the elegance and length on the palate that characterise this cuvée, seducing the most demanding palates, as evidenced by its presence on the wine lists of top Michelin-starred restaurants. This is a constant quest for perfection in the wine ageing process.

Tasting profile and culinary pairings

La Cuvée Peyron-Bouché reveals a complex and balanced aromatic profile. On the nose, notes of white-fleshed fruit and citrus mingle with subtle touches of oak and hazelnut, born from the ageing process. On the palate, the wine offers a creamy texture and beautiful freshness, with a lingering finish. This refined white wine is an ideal partner to enhance delicate dishes. We suggest food and wine pairings with noble fish in sauce, poultry in a cream sauce, or mature cheeses, where its complexity can fully express itself.

A history rooted in Bordeaux heritage

The history of these plots is intrinsically linked to that of our estate and to Bordeaux ampelography. For generations, Château Cazebonne has been committed to showcasing the viticultural heritage entrusted to these lands. The name "Peyron" finds its roots in ancient land surveys, such as the La Reynie Survey dating back to 1697, attesting to the antiquity and importance of this locality. It is with respect for this history that we craft wines that reflect the unique richness and diversity of the Bordeaux vineyards and of la croupe de Cazebonne.

Château Cazebonne is actively engaged in the replanting of grape varieties that had gradually disappeared from the Bordeaux landscape, an essential project for the future of our viticulture. This work is made possible thanks to the unwavering support of the many wine lovers who have adopted our wines and who, through their trust, allow us to continue to innovate and preserve this richness.
