Terroir and style
The Médoc stretches across the northern part of the Left Bank and is defined by soils of gravel, clay and sand shaped over centuries by the Gironde estuary. This diversity produces structured yet approachable wines dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The wines show deep colour with aromas of blackcurrant, plum, graphite, gentle spice and forest floor. The palate is straight and balanced with supple but firm tannins and steady freshness. The style is classic, honest and slightly rustic with a quiet elegance.

Food pairing
Médoc pairs well with grilled beef, roasted meats, duck confit, slow cooked dishes, pâté en croûte and aged cheeses.

Good to know
As one of Bordeaux’s largest appellations, Médoc often represents an accessible introduction to the Left Bank style. Many estates produce wines with excellent value and solid ageing potential.

Signature
Médoc expresses Bordeaux straightforwardness with structure, dark fruit and freshness in an authentic, grounded style.
