EN PRIMEURS 2020

A few days ago the En Primeurs Week ended, a key event for the Bordeaux wine industry.
An intense week during which Château de Ferrand presented his 2020 vintage.

Few words on the 2020 vintage…

The 2020 vintage is caracterized by an unprecedented weather conditions and the earliest harvests in Ferrand’s history (starting date of 14 September).
2020 also played to the strengths of our terroir, as the cool limestone-clay soils provided the vines with just the right amount of water to better withstand the high summer temperatures.

Château de Ferrand 2020 combines purity, finesse and elegance. It is an expressive, harmonious wine with a distinct personality.

Here are some scores given by French and international wine critics on our 2020 vintage:

James Suckling : 94-95/100
