About the Producer Château Couhins-Lurton
The Château Couhins-Lurton only produces white wine from a single grape variety (Sauvignon). Harvests are exclusively carried out by hand via successive selections. Fermentation and ageing is carried out on lees in merrain oak barrels. Thanks to this traditional practice, the wine retains beautiful balance and great complexity of flavours.
