Château Couhins-Lurton
A brief history
The Confidential Cru Classé
Until recently, this Classified Growth of Graves was a well-kept secret.
This is the smallest of our family estates, but also the smallest of the Classified Growth of Graves.
Its clay-limestone terroir, unique in the appellation, produces mineral Sauvignon Blancs and fruity, fresh Merlots. The wines are partly vinified and matured in barrels and horizontal amphorae: the meticulous work of a craftsman produces a dazzling result, worthy of this exceptional cru.
It is for this particular vintage that Jacques Lurton fully expresses his oenological vision, supported on a daily basis by his teams.
