The château and surrounding land are located on the Côte Pavie, where the site lies adjacent to the esteemed Château Pavie. Like Pavie, Larcis-Ducasse produces a Merlot-dominant Bordeaux blend. It dates to the 16th Century, and it has been owned by the Gratiot Alphandéry family since the 1940s. The estate spans around 11 hectares (27 acres), primarily planted to Merlot with a small amount of Cabernet Franc. The low-yielding vines are on average 35 years old and are planted on a range of different soil types, from alluvial sand deposits to limestone, clay, and chalk. A south-faceing aspect maximises sunshine exposure into the canopy allowing grapes to ripen to thier full phenolic potential. At harvest, grapes are handpicked in the vineyard. Fermentation takes place in cement tanks prior to malolactic fermentation in oak barrel. It is then barrel-aged for almost two years in French oak, two thirds of which is new. Movement of juice and wine in the cellar is powered by gravity to prevent excess oxidation. Larcis-Ducasse was one of the first in the region to have a gravity cellar, established in 1898. The château's second wine is called Murmure de Larcis Ducasse.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2022-12-22T17:41:18-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-21T15:53:08-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK2112","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Larcis-Ducasse","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Cabernet Franc","Varietal_Merlot"],"price":18795,"price_min":18795,"price_max":18795,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42640156590218,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2017 | Chateau Larcis-Ducasse","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":18795,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/39_11174949-4f7c-43b1-8665-4961ded1eb48.png?v=1671656020"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/39_11174949-4f7c-43b1-8665-4961ded1eb48.png?v=1671656020","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2017 | Chateau Larcis-Ducasse at CaskCartel.com","id":23818526097546,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.488,"height":1300,"width":634,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/39_11174949-4f7c-43b1-8665-4961ded1eb48.png?v=1671656020"},"aspect_ratio":0.488,"height":1300,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/39_11174949-4f7c-43b1-8665-4961ded1eb48.png?v=1671656020","width":634}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2017 | Chateau Larcis-Ducasse\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2017 is very pure in the nose, fresh with aromas of small black and red currants, light and very pretty, with good spicey concentration mid palate.
