Chateau de Haut Coulon Rouge Cadillac Cotes de Bordeaux 2018 2018
Concentration, maturity and power are the hallmarks of Château de Haut-Coulon, which do not, however, detract from its elegance and finesse. The nose is imposing due to its presence and massive intensity, with plenty of maturity and freshness. The wine’s entry to the palate sets the tone. The body is full, the flesh generous and the tannins show a lovely minerality. Sustained by a sensation of almost iodine sapidity, the finish is long with distinction and elegance. The Petit Verdot provides a tannic richness and an aromatic power characterised by violet aromas.

More about this product
Château Haut-Coulon
Придобито от семейство Кастел в началото на 80-те години на миналия век, лозето на Château Haut-Coulon обхваща 3,86 хектара и е най-малкото от семейните имения на Castel Freres. Разположено на много добре дрениран глинесто-варовиков склон, то съдържа безценно геоложко съкровище: почви от син монтморилонит (изключително редки глини с превъзходно качество, богати на минерали). На гъстотата на насажденията днес възлиза на 7 200 лози на хектар, което обуслява невероятните качества на гроздето.

Bordeaux is perhaps the most famous wine region in France. It stretches 130 kilometers inland from the Atlantic coast. In 2018, 111,000 hectares of vineyards were registered, a figure that remains largely constant over the previous decade. The main varieties grown here are Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc and they are used to make different wines, each producer having its own blend and proportions of mixing the varieties. Here are produced some of the most famous, most expensive and long-lasting wines in the world - the well-known subregions Medoc, Graves, St. Emilion, Pomerol and many others. Bordeaux is divided by the Gironde River on the left and right banks. Characteristic of the left bank (Medoc, Haut Medoc, Graves) is the more serious presence of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend of wine, while on the right bank (St. Emillion, Pomerol) merlot predominates. In addition to red wines, Bordeaux is famous for the production of white, mainly a blend between Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, with the Sauternes subregion and the leading Chateau d’Yquem, famous for its complex and multi-layered, aromatic and sweet botrytized dessert wine.
