Haut Gaussens 2018

Château Haut Gaussens 2018: Balance and Elegance in a Fine Bordeaux

The Château Haut Gaussens 2018 is an emblematic cuvée from this family-run estate, located in Vérac, in the Entre-Deux-Mers region, renowned for producing characterful Bordeaux wines. Under the guidance of Stéphane Lucereau, the estate focuses on sustainable viticulture and precise winemaking, allowing the terroir to fully express itself.

This wine is crafted from a classic Bordeaux blend, predominantly Merlot, complemented by Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Malbec. This composition provides roundness, structure, and aromatic complexity.

In the glass, it reveals a deep red hue with garnet reflections. The nose is intense and expressive, offering aromas of ripe black fruits, cassis, and cherry, with hints of spices and subtle oak. On the palate, the attack is full and velvety, with well-integrated tannins and a refreshing acidity that ensures balance and length. The finish is elegant, with lingering notes of cocoa and liquorice.

This charming Bordeaux pairs perfectly with duck breast, roasted rack of lamb, or a selection of aged cheeses. A generous and refined wine, ready to enjoy now or after a few years of ageing.
