Once picked the grapes were destemmed – no extra tannins were required – gently crushed and cold soaked for two days before being fermented separately. During the 11-day fermentation, the skins were hand-plunged to ensure maximum extraction. Once blended the wine was placed into 225-litre French oak casks, half of which were new, for 17 months.

Originally a wine-producing property, it had its vines uprooted in 1934 due to the financial crisis of 1929. The property was purchased in 1938 by the Rioux family, breeders of dairy cows, they also cultivated wheat and potatoes until 1972. It wasn’t until 1979 when Henry Musso purchased the land from the Rothschild family that Château de Cach began to be restored to its former glory. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt took Henry Musso years of hard work, dedication, persistence, and sacrifice but in1982 he produced and bottled his first wine. Since 1979 Henry has dedicated his life to the property and has passed on his passion for the vine and the land itself to his two daughters. Today Hélène, Henry Musso’s youngest daughter runs things, she relies heavily on the knowledge she attained from her father as well as guidance from wine consultant, Cedric Moreau. It so happens that Mr. Moreau is the president of the Bordeaux wine quality control organisation, Qualibordeaux. Therefore, we can be sure that everything is done by the book and beyond. Sharing the Musso family’s love of all things equine, Cedric also owns Chateau du Hâ and favours micro-oxygenation to make wines which are aged in thermoregulated stainless steel tanks. This method results in wines that one would believe were barrel-aged. Meaning, they keep and emphasise their elegance without overpowering them with oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine Press \/ Awards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e90 Points (18\/20 - France de vin) (2016)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Borderac Crus et Vins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54903677878659,"sku":"BCV13419","price":49.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0272\/9843\/1058\/files\/Henri_Musso_Chateau_Les_Landes_de_Cach_Pauillac.png?v=1743089738"},{"product_id":"casa-la-rad-blanco-rioja-doca-2021","title":"Casa La Rad Blanco Seleccion Rioja DOCa 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e90 Points - Decanter.\u003c\/strong\u003e High-altitude white Rioja from the Casa La Rad estate in Rioja Oriental, where cool nights, poor soils and varied exposures bring natural tension and clarity.

This terrain absorbs heat during the day and radiates it back at night, creating a warm microclimate that is particularly well-suited to ripening Bordeaux-style red varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah - even in New Zealand’s otherwise cool climate. The low fertility of the soils forces vines to reach deep for nutrients, resulting in smaller, more concentrated berries and wines with great intensity, complexity, and structure. Only a defined area of Hawke’s Bay can label its wines “Gimblett Gravels” - making it one of the world’s most terroir-driven, distinctive sites for premium red wines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards \u0026amp; Critic Scores\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2019 Ngakirikiri has received exceptional recognition, including 97 points from Decanter Magazine and praise for its intensity, ageing potential, and elegance.
