"A delicious, refreshing red wine"

A Bergerac with lovely aromas of very fresh, tangy red fruits on the nose with floral notes, leading to a medium-bodied, juicy palate that is crisp and enveloping, with lovely freshness. This cuvée is the perfect introduction to the world of De Conti.

3-star rating (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Guillaume and Paul, Francis' sons, together with oenologist Yann Lecoindre, manage the 30 hectares of Saint Julien d'Eymet, under the Albert de Conti label (formerly the flagship cuvée of Tour des Gendres). A new winery and aging facility is set to be built in Saint Julien, providing an opportunity to revitalize the village's wine industry. The trio, led by the dynamic Guillaume, has every intention of innovating, both in terms of labels and the style of the vintages, by planting Savoyard grape varieties and others, just like their cousins. Watch this space.

Wine rating (2025 guide) 89/100 (2023 vintage)

Rated estate (2023 guide) 2 stars (These very large estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).

About the estate:

Rancis de Conti was a cooperative member and delivered his wines before joining forces with his brother Luc de Conti at Château La Tour des Gendres. In 2021, Guillaume, his son, his brother Paul, accompanied by Yann Lecoindre, the cellar master at La Tour des Gendres, took over this 30-hectare lease to produce their own vintages under the Albert de Conti label. The Conti-ne Périgourdine, Cuvée des Conti, La Vigne d'Albert, Chez Paul, and natural sparkling wines produced on this estate's land have been taken over by the new structure, which is therefore included in our guide at the same level as the former estate.
