About the Winery
EARL Coutreau is a wine estate in Vensac, in the Médoc appellation on Bordeaux's Left Bank. The email address 'chateaudavid' suggests the estate is also known as Château David. The Médoc is one of the world's most prestigious wine regions, known for producing structured, age-worthy red wines from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The gravelly soils (graves) of the Médoc, deposited by the Gironde estuary, provide excellent drainage and are ideal for Cabernet Sauvignon. The wines are typically aged in oak barrels and can develop complexity over decades.
