Country: France

Region: Pauillac, Bordeaux

Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon

Vintage: 2020

Osamu has just 0.60ha of 30yo vines in a tranquil spot near Cissac-Médoc surrounded by pine forests (the previous owner ploughed, never used chemicals and sold his grapes to the co-op!) from which he produces just 2,400bts in a good year.

Le Miracle is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged in one year old 500ltr barrels, with no fining or filtration. A really light, delicate colour for claret. No overpowering impact from oak, just fresh blackberry and blackcurrant fruit with an energetic zing and well-integrated tannins that build on the palate. Refined, next generation Bordeaux.
