Description

Château Couhins la Gravette is a renowned producer of Pessac-Léognan Blanc wines with a long and rich history dating back to the 18th century. Located in the heart of the Pessac-Léognan appellation, the estate covers 18 hectares of land, with the majority of the vineyards planted to Sauvignon Blanc and a smaller portion planted to Semillon. The style of production at Château Couhins la Gravette is focused on producing elegant, complex, and expressive wines that reflect the terroir. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted before being pressed and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The resulting wine is a beautiful expression of the Pessac-Léognan terroir, with a pale yellow color, aromas of citrus, white flowers, and a hint of minerality, and flavors of lemon, grapefruit, and a touch of honey. The finish is long and lingering, with a subtle hint of oak.

Château Couhins la Gravette is a producer that is dedicated to quality and sustainability. The estate is certified organic and uses only natural methods to control pests and diseases in the vineyards. The winery also uses solar panels to generate electricity and has implemented a number of other eco-friendly practices to reduce its carbon footprint.

Overall, Château Couhins la Gravette is a producer that is well worth seeking out for anyone who appreciates fine white Bordeaux wines. Its commitment to quality and sustainability, combined with its long history and dedication to the Pessac-Léognan terroir, make it a standout producer in the region.

Tasting notes

92 Points - The wine Advocate

The Couhins 2018 Blanc features compelling notions of green guava, white peaches and lemon curd with wafts of honeysuckle and wet pebbles. The medium-bodied palate is intensely fruited with tightly wound citrus and stone fruit layers, supported by a crisp backbone, finishing long with wonderful purity.
