ABOUT THIS WINE
Château Pradeau-Mazeau is an estate located in the hilly commune of Targon, within the Entre-Deux-Mers sub-region of Bordeaux. Managed by the Mazeau family, the estate represents five generations of winemaking tradition, currently led by Oriane Mazeau alongside Philippe and Xavier. The property spans 20 hectares of siliceous and calcareous clay soils. Because the Entre-Deux-Mers AOC is strictly reserved for dry white wines, the estate's red wines are classified under the broader Bordeaux AOC, offering consumers an estate-grown, Right Bank-style blend at an exceptional value.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The grapes are harvested from late September to mid-October using plot-by-plot parcel management to ensure optimal ripeness. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to preserve fresh fruit characteristics. The wine is then aged entirely in subterranean, glass-walled concrete vats, remaining 100% unoaked to maintain fruit purity and the authentic expression of the terroir.
