About the estate:

People turned away from Bordeaux during that period, but as Parker’s influence has waned, there has been a return to fresher, fruitier, more refined, less oaky, and more elegant wines, with more moderate extraction and greater drinkability. I think this is the way forward for Bordeaux. Among his Favorites is Château le Coteau, created by Eric Leglise—a Margaux full of finesse, a true terroir wine.
