Montagne Saint-Émilion AOC

Château Coucy Montagne Saint-Émilion AOC 150 cl

Château Coucy Montagne Saint-Émilion AOC is a classic Bordeaux red wine with finesse and charm. In the magnum bottle (150 cl), the wine develops particularly slowly and harmoniously, gaining additional depth and elegance. The blend consists of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc and is aged in French barriques. The wine carries the “Haute Valeur Environnementale” certification, which stands for sustainable and environmentally friendly wine production. In the glass, it presents an elegant garnet red with ruby reflections. On the nose, red fruit aromas are complemented by fine notes of vanilla and liquorice, typical of Merlot. On the palate, it is balanced, with soft, well-integrated tannins. An interplay of aromas of roses, cherries and delicate spices rounds off the experience.

Producer: Château Coucy

Château Coucy is one of the oldest estates in the Montagne Saint-Émilion appellation. From generation to generation, the estate’s methods have been continuously refined. The 20 hectares of vineyards benefit from their southern exposure and clay-limestone soils. Exceptionally old vines, consistent canopy management and the often underestimated winter work during the vegetative rest period are further factors contributing to the quality of this wine. The harvest is carried out strictly by hand and transported in small containers of no more than 20 kilos to the winery for processing. The grapes are then carefully vinified into a unique blend of the region’s typical grape varieties. Château Coucy – a high-quality Bordeaux with character.

How does barrique ageing influence the wine?
Ageing in French barriques gives the wine additional structure and fine aromatic nuances such as vanilla and spice, without overshadowing the fruit.
