Château Lousteauneuf, classified Cru Bourgeois Supérieur, is a superb property located in the heart of the Médoc region. This historic estate benefits from an exceptional terroir composed of gravelly and clayey soils, which gives its wines a unique character and great finesse.

The vineyard is cultivated with great respect for the environment, following sustainable viticultural practices and meticulous vinification to preserve the richness of the terroir. After manual harvesting and rigorous bunch selection, the grapes are carefully vinified and then aged in oak barrels to refine the structure and develop the aromatic complexity.

Château Lousteauneuf offers an intense purple color, a testament to its concentration. The nose opens with seductive aromas of ripe black fruits, blackcurrant, and blackberry, enhanced by subtle notes of vanilla, sweet spices, and undergrowth. On the palate, this wine combines power and elegance, with supple, well-integrated tannins. Its velvety texture and beautiful length reveal a perfect balance between freshness and depth.

This Cru Bourgeois Supérieur du Médoc has excellent aging potential and will be fully appreciated after a few years in the cellar, revealing all the richness and complexity of its terroir. Ideal with grilled red meats, stews, or mature cheeses, this Château Lousteauneuf will delight lovers of fine Médoc wines with its elegance and distinctive character.
