Alice Demonchaux's Story
Alice Demonchaux's Story
We are working 3 together in our winery called Chateau Pierrail. I met my husband Jacques in Paris and love took me to the vineyards of Bordeaux with him. We also have our son Aurélien who we want to pass the tradition to for many years to come.
The 17 century chateau and the vineyard had to be restored and it was very hard job at the beginning but we were very excited and optimistic.
We made analysis of the terroir which is really superb in this East part of Bordeaux, even if it is not the "1855 grands crus classés part". We took off some plants to replant better varieties more adapted to our terroir, mostly Merlot, and Sauvignon for the white.
We worked very hard for quality. We decided for more quality to make different wines according to different plots of the property to get more specific terroir wines. We created an oak barrels winery.
We chose Cuvee "les Hauts de Naudon" for a fruity souple wine with a good concentration and balance, and a spécial blend Sauvignon blanc & Sauvignon Gris for the white.
We soon got rewards and medals and got recognition from our customers. We now have been selected for many years among the 5 best wines of our Bordeaux Superieur Appellation (TALENT competition).
