Château Paradis Casseuil Blanc

Château Paradis Casseuil Blanc
AOC Bordeaux, France

The vintage

The 2025 vintage began with a mild winter, followed by an early and particularly even spring. Summer then set in with persistently hot and very dry conditions, with marked water stress from the start of the season, though without excessive vine shutdown. This gradual tension naturally limited yields, allowing for excellent ripeness levels. Late-summer temperature variations played a key role in preserving freshness and aromatic precision. In this demanding context, the grapes intended for dry whites stand out for their great aromatic complexity and remarkable balance. 2025 thus emerges as a vintage of character at Paradis Casseuil.

Location

Paradis Casseuil covers about sixty hectares southeast of Bordeaux, in the heart of the Entre-Deux-Mers region. The vineyard is distributed across three municipalities, with a hilly landscape reminiscent of Tuscany.

Terroir

The terroir at Paradis Casseuil consists primarily of Agenais molasse, a typical geological formation of the Entre-Deux-Mers plateau. Additionally, there is Astria limestone present in the specific location called "Le Paradis." Across the different sections of the vineyard, these formations showcase a diverse range of sedimentary features, including sandy limestone, marls, clays with limestone nodules, variegated magnesian molasse, and more. The resulting soils are often highly clayey and rich in calcium, offering excellent structural porosity. They allow deep root penetration and provide a certain freshness.

Winemaking

This wine is produced using traditional winemaking methods in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. After settling, alcoholic fermentation is initiated with constant temperature monitoring to prevent overly rapid progression.
