The château's grand vin was first classed as Cru Bourgeois Supérieur in the 19th century, a title it still holds today. Depending on the vintage, the wine is a classic Bordeaux blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot in varying proportions. The vineyards cover 67 hectares (166 acres) of Garonne gravel soils, and are planted to 52 percent Merlot and 44 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, with small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The close vicinity of these vineyards to the Gironde estuary, in combination with the warming effects and good drainage provided by the gravel-rich soils, produce optimal grape-growing conditions. Two fermenting rooms, one stainless steel and the other cement, are housed in the château's winery. This allows vinification to be specifically tailored to each vineyard plot. Château Lamothe Bergeron also makes a second label – Liberté de Lamothe. Depending on the vintage, these wines will age for anywhere between 12 and 18 months in oak barrels in the château's large wine cellars. Winemaking at Château Lamothe Bergeron began with the acquisition of the estate by scientist Jacques de Bergeron in 1773. His experiments with vine grafting led to the invention of the Bergeron method, which was in common practice up until the early 1900s. The estate took the name 'Lamothe' in the 1850s, which translates as a property located on a 'motte' or an elevated piece of land. The château was built in 1868. Château Lamothe Bergeron was purchased by the H. Mounier and Hardy Cognac houses in 2009, which employed the winemaking expertise of Hubert de Boüard.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-02-08T13:58:36-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-02T03:33:44-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","LK0202","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Lamothe Bergeron","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":39999,"price_min":39999,"price_max":39999,"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":42758455525514,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2012 | Chateau Lamothe Bergeron | Haut-Medoc","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":39999,"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\/06_ce6b9212-bb62-4d2a-b4b4-03c9c18b3c29.jpg?v=1675326925"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/06_ce6b9212-bb62-4d2a-b4b4-03c9c18b3c29.jpg?v=1675326925","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2012 | Chateau Lamothe Bergeron | Haut-Medoc at CaskCartel.com","id":24136338604170,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/06_ce6b9212-bb62-4d2a-b4b4-03c9c18b3c29.jpg?v=1675326925"},"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/06_ce6b9212-bb62-4d2a-b4b4-03c9c18b3c29.jpg?v=1675326925","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2012 | Chateau Lamothe Bergeron | Haut-Medoc\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine is remarkably clean and fruity, boasting an intense colour, spicy notes and remarkable minerality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Chateau Lamothe Bergeron\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings: \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eWA\u003c\/span\u003e | 89\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2012\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Bordeaux Blend Red\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e France, Bordeaux\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine is remarkably clean and fruity, boasting an intense colour, spicy notes and remarkable minerality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #222223;\"\u003eReviews:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #9f250d;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWine Enthusiast:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Classic Bordeaux in structure, this firm wine has dry tannins that still dominate the black and red berry fruits.
