Château Franc Couplet Bordeaux Supérieur AOC Limited Edition

The Meynaud family owns both Château Franc Couplet and Château Laussac on the right bank of the Gironde. The young and talented Eric Meynaud took over the vineyard from his father in 1995 right after he finished his studies. Since then, the winery has grown from 10 to more than 100 hectares. Eric has always tried to get the best out of his vineyards and regularly sends his wines to competitions where they have won numerous awards, not only in France but all over the world.

Château Franc Couplet is spread over limestone and clay land in the Entre-Deux-Mers region, on the east side of Bordeaux. The natural quality of the wines comes from the excellent quality of the soil.

It is matured in French oak barrels for 12 months, softening the palate and making outstanding wine.

Château La Verrière Bordeaux Supérieur Rouge AOC

Demanding and passionate, Alain Bessette gave his father’s property the means to produce quality wines. Accessible and worn on the fruit, they tell the revolution undertaken in the vineyard and the cellar.

A good control of the vegetation and a rigorous follow-up of the maturity allows to obtain healthy and ripe grapes, of a great richness, while a careful aging for 18 months in barrels and vats allows this wine to express power and elegance.

Since 2012, Château La Verriere has embarked on an environmental approach by integrating the certification scope of the SME (Environmental Management System) and HVE (Exploitation of High Environmental Value).
