Château Tire-Pé

At Château Tire-Pé, the history of the estate is reflected in the gentle slopes of its clay-rich hillsides, where Merlot takes on a very approachable character without losing any of its depth. Valérie and Hugues Ournac have been practicing organic viticulture for many years, constantly seeking a balance between ripeness and freshness. The reds feature straightforward fruit, sometimes with a hint of spice, supported by supple tannins that gain structure with aeration. Aging is kept moderate to preserve a direct, almost indulgent expression of the Entre-Deux-Mers terroir. The estate reminds us that a Bordeaux can be sincere, precise, and perfectly approachable, without artifice or the pursuit of flashy effects.
