Médaille d'Or

Concours Paris

“Four generations of the same family have cultivated this 26-hectare vineyard, which is primarily planted with Merlot. This ripe, juicy wine is rich in tannins, oak aromas, and black fruit. Age the wine to allow the harsh tannins to soften, and enjoy it starting in 2025.” (Wine Enthusiast 2018) Charm and potential!

Rated Estate (2020 Guide) Selected (An estate or winery that impressed us with one or more of its wines, though we are unable to offer a general assessment of the style of its entire lineup)

About the estate:

The Listrac winery was founded in the 1930s, and its partnership with the Compagnie des Wagons-Lits, which lasted until 1990, played a major role in establishing its reputation. Since 2017, it has partnered with the Cussac cooperative winery to form the Vignerons associés de Moulis, Listrac et Cussac Fort Médoc. The association comprises 43 winemakers managing a total of 164 hectares of vineyards. The Châteaux Guitignan, Vieux Moulin, and Capdet are among the fine estates in this new association.
