Maison Blanche du château Maison Blanche is the estate's grand vin, made exclusively with Cabernet and Merlot from old vines, mostly old varieties planted in historic terroirs. Cuvée Maison blanche is powerful and tannic when young. We recommend cellaring this great wine for over 10 years, before it reaches its full potential. Long, complex, it will be the ideal companion for dishes in sauce and game.Médaille d'or Mundus Vini 2013
