Château Couhins Lurton
In the heart of Pessac‑Léognan, Château Couhins Lurton rethinks the Graves heritage with a distinctive edge. Gravel mixed with clay‑limestone and cooler subsoils shapes Sauvignon Blanc with a taut, saline line, while Merlot on warmer plots provides structure and proportion. As a Cru Classé de Graves, the estate is prized for its rare mastery of both white and red.
Cellar choices focus on precision: carefully managed fermentations, extended lees work sur lie and a varied élevage toolkit—500‑litre barrels, larger formats and, for select lots, amphora—to build texture without blurring aromatics. Small batches are kept separate to preserve each parcel’s signature.
The style reads as modern Pessac‑Léognan: terroir‑driven, structured and fresh, a strong fit for premium selections that want clarity, craft and a recognised name.Château Couhins Lurton
