Derived from meticulously tended vines aged over 50 years and sourced from the finest terroirs of Bouscasse, the Vieilles Vignes wine takes its rightful place as the most prestigious offering within the Chateau's esteemed range. Crafted solely from 100% Tannat grapes, this wine possesses an impeccably crafted structure, exhibiting finesse, precision, and elegance. With its deep garnet hue adorned with violet undertones, the Vieilles Vignes of Bouscasse captivates the senses. Its enticing bouquet showcases aromas of luscious black fruit jam, notably blueberry, harmoniously entwined with subtle hints of oak imparted during its maturation process. The palate is broad and profound, revealing a symphony of freshness, fruity complexities, and beautifully integrated oak nuances. Supported by mature and well-blended tannins, this magnificent wine captivates from the very first sip, leaving a lasting impression.
Chateau Bouscasse is one of a number of properties owned by Madiran's Alain Brumont, the most significant other being Chateau Montus. Brumont is a blend of the conventional and the innovative, a sort of unification of the Rothschilds and Didier Dagueneau. His inspiration for his wines was Bordeaux; he returned from that more northerly region to Madiran in 1979, with a new determination to make high quality wines, oak influenced, with the necessary structure for the cellar.
