Caprice

Sound of Caprice Acoustic tasting Zum aktuellen Jahrgang

A Caprice follows no fixed form, yet it is never created by chance. This wine, too, was born from an idea of ​​freedom – and at the same time from the conviction that true lightness arises only from precision. Grown on a small, sandy plot at the edge of the forest, the Caprice displays a distinctive, clear signature that deliberately moves off the beaten path without abandoning the standards of origin and meticulous craftsmanship.

The slow fermentation in glass demijohns and the subsequent careful aging in wood lend the wine structure and tension without masking its freshness. Salty minerality, cool fruit, and subtle spice combine to create a vibrant, precise overall impression that reveals new facets with each tasting, making the wine appear slightly different with every encounter.

Caprice is a wine of surprises – not loud or eccentric, but quietly independent. It's aimed at curious drinkers who enjoy rediscovering familiar flavors and pairs particularly well with dishes that combine freshness, spice, and subtle depth. A wine that reminds us that freedom in wine doesn't mean arbitrariness, but rather the conscious decision to forge one's own path.

THE RULE-BREAK

Origin & Character

The Caprice grows on a single, small plot at the edge of the forest: C15, a sandy soil unlike anywhere else on the Domaine. Here stands the Alvarinho, a Portuguese grape variety practically nowhere to be found in Bordeaux — planted in 2019, so still young vines. Sand, a foreign variety and our reductive signature yield a wine with flinty, saline minerality that exists in this form nowhere else.
