CHATEAU LE TERTRE DE CAUSSAN AOC MEDOC

This 2020 Château Le Tertre de Caussan is an elegant organic Bordeaux blend, showcasing the rich terroir of the Médoc appellation. Composed of 59% Merlot, 32% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 9% Cabernet Franc, this wine is aged primarily in vats, with the most structured batches maturing in two- to three-year-old barrels before blending. Its bouquet is intense, with ripe red fruits, blackcurrant, and blackberry notes, complemented by hints of sweet spices. On the palate, the wine is round, soft, and full, with ripe, well-integrated tannins providing structure and a long, refined finish.

Crafted to be both approachable when young and capable of aging for up to ten years, this 13.5% ABV wine strikes a perfect balance between fruitiness and finesse. Château Le Tertre de Caussan, now led by Nicolas Caussan, has been a family-run estate since the 1930s, with 18 hectares of vineyards on clay-limestone soils. Certified organic since 2021 and high environmental value since 2019, this wine is a testament to the estate’s dedication to sustainability and craftsmanship. A perfect choice for those who appreciate classic Bordeaux with a modern, eco-conscious twist.
