This estate has belonged to the SCEA M&C Quancard ever since its creation in the early 20th century (when it went under the name of CRU LATOUR SAINT JOSEPH). The Château is located on the highest point of the commune of Cissac, an ideal position for this Cru Bourgeois, ordered to the north-east by Saint-Estèphe and by Pauillac to the south-east. The exposure, the choice of the grape varieties, the care lavished on modern vinification and the traditional ageing in new oak barrels all go to help the crafting of an outstanding wine.
50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc
A deep, purple colour. A complex nose combining the aromas of dark and citrus fruit, dried flowers and burnt wood. On the palate, the wine is generous and concentrated, with magnificent round, ripe tannins. A rich, full-bodied finish with a delicate touch of woodiness. A truly delicious full bodied red wine.
