Note: Quote from Guide Hachette
"The second wine, Les Chênes de Bouscaut 2009, offers the same aromatic tones but with greater suppleness: it already tastes very good. " (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2014). A high-quality second wine, revealing notes of red fruit, leather and toast, with powerful, elegant tannins...

Rated estate (2014 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good-quality wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

"Bouscaut now charms us with the frankness of its wines. Sophie and Laurent Cogombles have made great strides, putting their hearts, time, and energy into reviving the viticulture and winemaking of this Graves classified growth. The originality of this terroir is perfectly reflected in the latest vintages: the white wines, which were previously made from equal parts of different grape varieties, have seen an increase in Sauvignon from 50% to 60% in the blend since 2011 (53% in 2012). They possess charm and depth, while the reds, marked by Merlot and a touch of Malbec in certain vintages, have gained greatly in body and texture quality.
