About

Francis Abécassis, visionary and independent producer in the Cognac appellation, owner of 5 brands of Single Estate Cognacs (ABK6, REVISEUR,Leyrat, Grands Domaines, Rêve Bleu), is breathing new life into his emblematic brand ABK6 by launching a new collection of French white wines from his new vineyard in the heart of France.

The vineyard : 126 hectares in Bordeaux right bank, commune of Sauveterre de Guyenne :

  • Oceanic climate, with a clay limestone and gravel soil

  • 3600/5500 vines per hectare with yields of 30HL/ha

Quality designation : AOC Bordeaux

Grape varieties: Sauvignon Blanc (76%) Semillon (12%) Colombard (7%) Sauvignon Gris (3%) Muscadelle (2%)

Alcohol volume : 12,5 %

Award : Silver medal 85 points - Beverages Tasting Institute 2025

We use double and single Guyot pruning, after which gentle mechanical harvesting is carried out to avoid oxidation and crushing of the grapes. Gentle pressing and sorting of juice qualities. For the Sauvignons, decantation followed by 48 hours' cold storage and resuspension of the fine lees. Cold settling for the other grape varieties.Vinification: temperature around 16°C to preserve aromas. Aged in stainless steel vats.

Tasting notes : ABK6 Family Estate Bordeaux Blanc is pale yellow in colour. The nose is already complex, with intense citrus and exotic fruit aromas. On the palate, it is beautifully elegant, with notes of pastry, roundness and a full finish.
