Un peu plus sur le merlot <\/span><\/h2>\n

Le merlot : un c\u00e9page rond comme son nom, facile \u00e0 dire, facile \u00e0 retenir. Rouge, aux petites baies noires, on le trouve dans le monde entier et principalement dans le vignoble de Bordeaux, sur la rive droite de la Garonne. <\/span>L\u00e0 il repr\u00e9sente pr\u00e8s de 60% des surfaces plant\u00e9es et parfois m\u00eame jusqu\u2019\u00e0 75%<\/span><\/a>. Il s\u2019\u00e9panouit particuli\u00e8rement bien \u00e0 Pomerol et Saint Emilion, sur des sols argilo-calcaires et il a l\u2019avantage de bien s\u2019adapter sur des parcelles tr\u00e8s ensoleill\u00e9es ou plus humides. <\/span><\/p>\n

Son histoire<\/span><\/h2>\n

Merlot ou Merlau<\/span><\/a> ? Son nom vient peut-\u00eatre de \u201cmerle\u201d, un oiseau qui aime picorer ses grains m\u00fbrs avant les autres c\u00e9pages de la r\u00e9gion. Il aurait \u00e9t\u00e9 implant\u00e9 en Gironde <\/span>peu avant JC<\/span><\/a>, mais son origine est encore vague. Au si\u00e8cle des lumi\u00e8res, il participe \u00e0 la l\u00e9gende des bordeaux rouges avant de partir \u00e0 la conqu\u00eate du monde en commen\u00e7ant par l\u2019Angleterre au d\u00e9part de la Dordogne. C\u2019est d\u2019ailleurs son succ\u00e8s \u00e0 l\u2019export qui augmentera les hectares de plantation. <\/span><\/p>\n

Apr\u00e8s des d\u00e9sastres climatiques, le vignoble rena\u00eet dans les ann\u00e9es 70, le merlot arrive alors en Californie o\u00f9 il devient rapidement une star. Apr\u00e8s des d\u00e9boires au cin\u00e9ma dans les ann\u00e9es 2000, aujourd\u2019hui, il est plant\u00e9 partout dans le monde entier o\u00f9 il rencontre toujours un franc succ\u00e8s.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le merlot, des styles<\/span><\/h2>\n

Le merlot est reconnu pour la finesse de ses tanins, la puissance de son corps et la richesse de sa palette aromatique. Il est aussi facile d\u2019acc\u00e8s de par sa souplesse et sa g\u00e9n\u00e9rosit\u00e9. On aime ses ar\u00f4mes fruit\u00e9s : fruits rouges, m\u00fbrs, parfois allant jusqu\u2019au pruneau. Puis viennent les notes florales de violette et quand il vieillit de sous-bois, de fruits m\u00fbrs, des notes florales et un rouge lumineux.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Un c\u00e9page d\u2019assemblage<\/span><\/p>\n

Contrairement \u00e0 d\u2019autres comme le pinot noir, le merlot supporte tr\u00e8s bien l\u2019assemblage. On le retrouve traditionnellement associ\u00e9 au cabernet franc et au cabernet sauvignon, qui fait les plus grands vins de Bordeaux. Parfois on lui ajoute du petit verdot et dans d\u2019autres r\u00e9gions de la syrah. <\/span><\/p>\n

Pr\u00e9coce, c\u2019est l\u2019un des premiers c\u00e9pages ramass\u00e9 pendant la longue saison des vendanges. S\u2019il se r\u00e9colte t\u00f4t et peut se boire jeune, c\u2019est surtout pour ses grandes capacit\u00e9s de garde qu\u2019il s\u2019est fait conna\u00eetre. <\/span><\/p>\n

Il se pr\u00eate aussi bien aux vins de soif qu\u2019aux grands vins de garde selon son terroir et la mani\u00e8re dont il est assembl\u00e9 et vinifi\u00e9.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Le merlot au ch\u00e2teau Suau <\/span><\/h2>\n

Le merlot repr\u00e9sente la majorit\u00e9 des vignes plant\u00e9es dans le vignoble de <\/span>Cadillac C\u00f4tes de Bordeaux et Cadilla<\/span><\/a>c, c\u2019est le cas au ch\u00e2teau Suau. C\u2019est donc logiquement qu\u2019il se retrouve en majorit\u00e9 dans nos rouges (58,5%). Bien s\u00fbr selon les mill\u00e9simes, les pourcentages varient. En 2015 tous les vins avaient une majorit\u00e9 de merlot. En 2010 par exemple, le Cadillac C\u00f4tes de Bordeaux avait une majorit\u00e9 de cabernet. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
