Druivensoorten: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot
Château La Couspaude is a wine producer located on the limestone plateau just outside the village of Saint-Émilion. It produces a single Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé from 7 hectares (17 acres) of vineyards planted to Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Several decades of work was finally rewarded in 1996 when Château La Couspaude’s wine was classified as a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé.
Château La Couspaude is typically a blend of 75-percent Merlot, 20-percent Cabernet Franc and 5-percent Cabernet Sauvignon. The vines, averaging 30 years old, are picked by hand and the grapes fermented in small wooden vats. Malolactic fermentation then takes place in new French oak barrels, before the wine is barrel-aged for 18 to 20 months.
