The F.A.Q

How are the wines from the 2015 vintage characterised?

The wines from the 2015 vintage are generally rich, ripe and fruity. They have a beautiful concentration and well-integrated tannins. Many wines are accessible and pleasant to drink in their youth, but they also have good ageing potential.

In which regions was the 2015 vintage wine most successful?

The 2015 vintage was particularly successful in the Bordeaux region, especially on the Right Bank where Merlots benefited from ideal conditions, producing rich, smooth wines with great depth. The Burgundy region produced concentrated, elegant red wines with beautiful fruity expression and excellent balance. Finally, the Rhône Valley was also a great success, where Syrahs are powerful and deep, with lots of freshness and finesse.

These are the three regions where climatic conditions allowed for optimal grape maturity, resulting in exceptional wines.

Are the wines from the 2015 vintage suitable for ageing?

The 2015 vintage is considered excellent in many French wine regions, notably in Bordeaux, Burgundy, and the Rhône. Thanks to ideal weather conditions, the red wines from this year show structure, richness, and balance, offering them a very good ageing potential (10 to 30 years depending on the regions and estates). The white wines and champagnes are also successful, with a more moderate ageing capacity.

The wines of 2015: a great classic for lovers of exceptional wines

The 2015 vintage will remain in our memories as one of the most sunny and balanced of recent decades. A mild spring and hot summer, punctuated by cool nights, allowed perfect ripening of the grapes, while maintaining beautiful acidity. Throughout France, we find deep, harmonious red wines of 2015 destined for long ageing, but also generous, elegant and balanced white wines of 2015.

Thanks to this sunny and balanced profile, each great wine of 2015 combines aromatic intensity, structure and exceptional ageing potential. Whether one seeks an opulent red wine of 2015 from Bordeaux, a refined Burgundy 2015, a powerful Rhône 2015 or an elegant vintage Champagne, this vintage offers bottles capable of spanning decades.
