Alliance Aquitaine was created in 2009 by the union of 3 production sites situated in Le Fleix, Saint Vivien and Bergerac. It is, just like U2VBA, the collective project of winegrowers who wish to forge ahead to ensure the future of their estates, and set the service of their clients as a priority.

Equipments : Alliance Aquitaine has a storage capacity of 195 000 hectoliters. This capacity represents the volume of two harvests, so it enables a separate winemaking of the grapes coming from different appellations and châteaux. The winery owns an “Inertys” press that protects the white and rosé wines from oxydation thanks to the addition of nitrogen. An equipment of pre-fermentation maceration at warm temperature is also used to extract fruity aromas and colour to get modern-type red wines. The use of new techniques, as far as they improve the quality of the wines, does not exclude the respect of some traditional practices. It is the case of the ageing in oak barrels developed at Bergerac winery. |
