Château Franc Couplet
With a rich family history, the Chateau Franc Couplet estate offers you refined wines, resulting from the intense annual work of our entire team, in collaboration with our experienced oenologist. Discover here the characteristics of Chateau Franc Couplet wine, from which our vineyard takes its name.
Here it all started!
The grapes vinified for Chateau Franc Couplet come from most of the plots of our estate and we know every corner by heart.
This wine bears the name of our family, and is in our image : authentic and whole.
Vinified with great care, attention and patience, the wines of Chateau Franc Couplet are regularly awarded prizes in the various competitions in which we participate each year (for example in Paris, Bordeaux and Blaye). Proud of our know-how and our traditions, the medals we win offer our customers an additional guarantee of quality.
Available in Bordeaux or Bordeaux Supérieur, these wines are round with notes of fresh fruit.
