About Chateau de la Coste 2019, Margaux
Château de La Coste is the second wine of Château Paveil de Luze. Château Paveil de Luze is one of the oldest properties in the Médoc. The vineyard dates from the 17th century and is run by the Barons de Luze Family since 1862. Today, Marguerite and Catherine de Luze represent the sixth generation and continue to elaborate on fine and delicate wines. Château de la Coste's vineyards are in the northern part of the Margaux appellation.
Margaux boasts 21 châteaux with classified growth status and is known to produce elegant, delicate, and fragrant wines. This excellence is a result of the soil quality, the unique weather conditions, and natural drainage which exists in the vineyards.
A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot, Château de La Coste is made using young vines and selected fruit from Château Paveil de Luze itself. The vines are grown in gravelly soil and subsoil. Leaf thinning is done in July on the least exposed side to the sun and in August on the most exposed side. Green harvesting is done just before the ripening period. Grapes are all manually harvested and sorted at the winery. After a cold maceration for 48 hours, alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks occurs and lasts for 21 days. The wine is then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, 25% new.
The wine has a brilliant, ruby color with purple reflections and aromas of black fruits and cassis with hints of cinnamon and sandalwood. This wine is soft, satisfying and elegant with a lush, ripe berry taste.
Wine Enthusiast scored this 91 points saying, “This Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated wine is richly full-bodied. Wood aging for a year has given the wine density and polish. The black fruits, lifted by acidity, give a juicy aftertaste that brings together this ageworthy wine. Drink from 2025.”
