Le Fruit Défendu, 2022

Charivari is a natural wine project by Nea Berglund, a young winemaker in the traditional wine region of Bordeaux. Nea runs her family estate Chateau Carsin which has 18 hectares of organically certified vineyards. In 2015, she created her "fun wine project" : Charivari Wines. "I play a little bit with the rules and traditions and make pure, fruity wines from estate-grown fruit. I have 6 wines in my portfolio and all is made from our own grapes, vinified and bottled at the estate. Our different wines are : a fresh and cheerful pétnat from Sauvignon Blanc, a barrel-aged dry white wine from Sauvignon Blanc, an amphora aged white wine with a 3-week skin-contact from Sauvignon Blanc, a fresh rosé made with Malbec. Our two red wines are made with Merlot: Le Petit Coucou is more fresh and meant to be drank with friends or food, L'Aventure Nocturne is our rich red wine filled with earthy and cherry notes (more intense as made from old vines).
