Château
Cossieu Coutelin
The magic of a terroir can inspire the finest chemistry.
At Château Cossieu-Coutelin, the wine and the “murrain” oak merge exquisitely, creating perfect harmony.
The vines of Château Cossieu-Coutelin, in the prestigious appellation of Saint-Estèphe in the Haut-Médoc, are planted in a clay and limestone soil which contributes to its outstanding quality. The vineyard was bought in 1977 by Marcel and Christian Quancard.
