The Médoc has its local appellations, its châteaux, its terraces... and its Japanese winemaker. Arriving in 2010, Osamu Uchida settled in the commune of Cissac-Médoc (bordering Pauillac and Saint-Estèphe) with the aim of producing wines that combine Japanese perfectionism with Bordeaux oenological know-how. On his micro-vineyard of less than 3 ha, Osamu Uchida produces several cuvées, including Miracle, 100% Cabernet-Sauvignon, 20% de-stemmed by hand, aged in 500-l barrels, bottled unfined and unfiltered, with a minimum of SO2. His 2023 is fresh, fruity (pure blackberry juice), moderately tannic and slightly acidic, a Médoc with good length, as delicate as it is original.
