## About this wine

Les Terres Dubien is an artisanal estate founded in 2020 by Benoît Joussot-Dubien in the Médoc peninsula of Bordeaux. The estate focuses on organic and biodynamic viticulture with minimal intervention.

## Interesting facts

- Les Terres Dubien utilizes foraged plant infusions to drastically reduce copper and sulfur applications in the vineyard.
- The estate spans just 3 hectares of organically farmed vines in the Médoc area.

## Food pairing

Medium-bodied red wines pair excellently with roasted meats, poultry, and savory mushroom dishes that complement fresh red fruit flavors and light-to-medium tannins.

## Wine making process

Winemaking emphasizes native yeast fermentation and gentle extractions without mechanical pumping, preserving fruit purity and supple tannins.
