Producer Information

Château Bouscaut is an estate in the Pessac-Léognan appellation situated on the left bank of the Garonne river. It was classified as Grand Cru Classé de Graves in 1959, for both its red and white wines. Les Chênes de Bouscaut is the label for the second wines. The Château Bouscaut grand vin is typically a blend of 65 percent Merlot, 20 percent Cabernet Sauvignon and 15 percent Malbec. This wine is made from vines that are 35 years old on average, and are grown in a mixture of clayey-calcareous and gravel soils. In the winery, vinification is carried out in stainless steel tanks and the wine aged in 40 percent new oak barrels. Château Bouscaut’s white wine is made from 60 percent Sauvignon Blanc and 40 percent Sémillon grapes. It fermented ferment with battonage and matured in oak barrels, around half of which are new.
