Comte de Gironde Bordeaux Sauvignon AOC

Comte de Gironde has been owned by the Comin family for over a hundred years and since 2003 it is one of the daughters and her husband who together run the business with plantations of around 50 hectares of vines. The vineyard spans three municipalities in the appellation Entre-Deux-Mers on lands that are characteristic of the region’s terroir, full of muddy limestone. Soil that is very favorable for growing both Sauvignon Blanc for white and Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon for reds.
