    Powerful and Generous Haut-Médoc from the Oldest Properties in the Médoc - Cru Bourgeois 

    Château Citran 2019 displays a vibrant, deep hue with subtle purple highlights. Its expressive bouquet reveals a blend of red fruit aromas intertwined with rich, intense notes of black fruit. On the palate, this wine balances power and generosity within a well-structured and harmonious profile. 

    "The 2019 Citran is showing well in bottle, unwinding to reveal aromas of cassis, red plums and subtle hints of sweet soil. Medium-bodied, lively and understated, with powdery tannins and tangy acids, it concludes with a youthfully firm finish. While this won't be the most demonstrative 2019 Bordeaux out of the gates, it will reward bottle age to deliver a classic middleweight."
    -Robert Parker

    • Blend of Cabernet sauvignon (43%), merlot (49%), cabernet franc (8%)

    STORY BEHIND THE WINE

    Château Citran has a history dating as far back as the 13th century. The estate remained under the Donissan de Cirtan family’s ownership until 1832, when the last heir sold the property. Today, the château is owned by the Merlauts, who are reaping the benefits of previous Japanese proprietors’ restorations. Situated on the edge of the Moulis-en-Médoc appellation, the Citran vineyards stretch over 100-hectares wide, and benefit from the maritime-like Médoc climate due to its vicinity to the Gironde estuary and Bay of Biscay. Idyllically located, the sustainably farmed property is sheltered from the westerly and north-westerly winds by the coastal pine forests. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot plantings evenly share the land. The tranquility of this château is echoed in their Cru Bourgeois classified wines, they are velvety clarets with long-lasting finishes.
